I am always looking for yummy treats to eat on Christmas morning. And I like to be in the kitchen as little as possible on the holidays so making things ahead of time is right up my ally. This Overnight Almond Pecan Sticky Roll recipe could not be easier. Mr. Pinkcakeplate is getting tired of seeing delicious treats on the counter knowing he cold not eat them right away. Every time I tell him he has to wait until I get things photographed he gets a little cranky. Yes I is like a little kid who cant wait for Christmas morning. I guess that can be my fault for making such yummy treats. OK maybe not! LOL!
You know how delicious Rhodes Frozen Cinnamon Rolls are? Imagine them soaking overnight in nuts, sugar , cinnamon and cream? How amazing does that sound? We that is exactly what this recipe does those cinnamon rolls. The most difficult thing about this recipe is chopping the nuts. I mean seriously. this recipe is as easy as 1,2, 3. Mix together the cinnamon, powdered sugar and cream. Pour it in your baking pan that has been prepared with baking spray. Add in the nuts and top with the 12 frozen cinnamon rolls. Cover and put in the fridge until the morning. Sleep tight and the magic happens in the fridge and in the oven in the morning.
I got up in the morning and pulled the sticky rolls out of the fridge and let them rise for about an hour then into the piping hot oven they went. Now when you pull these sticky rolls out of the oven they can look a little unassuming. But once you turn them out onto your platter there is no mistake that these sticky buns are something special. The nuts and cream mixture make the most delicious caramely nutty topping. And let me tell you they are so good! The nuts give a delicious crunch and the cinnamon is so delicious.
Ingredients
Method
- Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
- In a small bowl combine the powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream. Pour into the pan. The mixture will be thick so you may have to use a spatula to spread evenly in the pan.
- Sprinkle pecans and almonds over top of the milk/sugar mixture.
- Place frozen cinnamon rolls on top of sugar/cream and nuts/
- Cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with cooking spray [the part of the plastic wrap that touches the rolls].
- Leave in fridge overnight. In the morning, let sit out covered at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
- After baking let cool on wire rack for 5 minutes.
- Carefully take your pan and turn it upside down, over a serving platter or cutting board. Serve warm.
These will definitely be made again they are a huge hit in our house. Watch out Christmas morning because these are on the menu for sure. Do you have a favorite recipe you make for holiday mornings?
