  1. These were, like, wow! Don't you love it when a recipe renders you inarticulate? First, these were not the most super easy buns I've ever had, but that's because I decided to use my own challah dough which I made from scratch that morning. But if I had used frozen bread dough, this would have been too easy for words. I left out the pecans, and made some icing to drizzle on top afterwards (just some icing sugar, water and a bit of cinnamon). I made a more-than-double batch (using 1 kilo of flour for the challah dough) and the buns were gone in just over 24 hours. I think I'm going to be freezing batches of challah dough just so I can make these all the time. Thanks Terri!
     
  2. I enjoyed everybite and enjoyed making just made a few modifacations of my own,like vanilla in the sauce mixture.My family and i couldn't control ourselves.Awesome recipe thank you.
     
  3. These are soooo ood and easy too. For those with nut allergy try raisins. Then tell your family they are nutritout, high in iron. Either way my family can't get enough of them
     
  4. Easy! I have made them a few times. Use less sugar and butter and add some vanilla- taste is just the same.
     
  5. Really, really, REALLY GOOD!<br/>I wanted to make something sweet, so I made these. I didn't have any nuts for them, but they turned out GRRREAT! And they are very easy to make!
