Super Easy Sticky Buns

DIRECTIONS

• In a small saucepan, combine 2/3 cup brown sugar with the water and 2 tbsp of butter.

• Spread all but about 3 tbsp of this mixture in the bottom of a shallow 9 inch baking dish.
• On a lightly floured surface, shape the thawed bread dough into a rectangle.

• Sprinkle on remaining brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans, and drizzle with remaining caramel.
• Roll dough up jelly-roll style, starting at the long end.

• Place in pan, cut side up, and allow to rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake for 30 minutes, until buns are golden brown.
