1

Heat oven to 350°F. In medium microwavable bowl, mix brown sugar and 1/4 cup softened butter. Microwave uncovered on High 30 seconds; stir. Continue heating 15 seconds at a time, stirring after each, just until bubbly (do not overheat); stir in corn syrup. Spread mixture in ungreased 9-inch round cake pan; sprinkle with pecans.
2

In small shallow bowl, add 3 tablespoons melted butter. In another small shallow bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon. Separate dough into 10 biscuits. Dip biscuits into melted butter to coat all sides; dip into sugar mixture, coating well. Arrange biscuits on top of topping mixture in pan.
3

Bake 24 to 29 minutes or until golden brown and biscuits are fully baked. Let stand 2 minutes. Place heatproof serving plate upside down onto pan; turn plate and pan over. Let pan remain on top of biscuits 1 minute so caramel can drizzle over biscuits; remove pan. Replace any remaining pecan or caramel mixture, if necessary. Serve warm.

Don’t care for pecans? Leave them out, and you’ll still have delicious caramel sticky buns.
To reheat, place one bun on a microwavable plate, and microwave uncovered on High 10 to 15 seconds or until caramel is softened and the pecan sticky bun is warmed through.
If your family can't get enough of these easy sticky buns, they'll love waking up to a fresh batch of our gooey Caramel-Apple Sticky Buns.
