Army Wife In The Kitchen: Sticky Buns

This recipe is absolutely amazing!!! You can easily assemble the night before and bake in the morning.

For the dough you will need:

1 package active dry yeast

1/4 cup warm water

2/3 cup milk

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup melted butter

1 teaspoon salt

4 egg yolks

3 1/2 cups all purpose flour

pour the yeast into a large bowl

Add the water and mix until yeast is dissolved

add the milk

Add butter

add sugar

salt

Add the egg yolks

I transfered the mixture to my mixture to add the flour. once it is all combined knead the dough on a flour surface for 10-15 minutes

once the dough is kneaded place in a greased bowl and cover. Let rise for 2-3 hours or until doubled in size

Once the dough has risen you can move on to the other steps.

For the Topping you will need:

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup honey

1 cup chopped pecans (or any nut of your choice)

Mix together the brown sugar, butter, and honey on medium heat

cook until all mixed together and smooth

pour mixture into a greased baking dish

cover with pecans

For the filling you will need:

2/3 cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons cinnamon

1/4 cup butter softened

Once the dough is done rising, roll out to approximately 1/4 inch thick. Try your best to roll out in a rectangle shape (I can never get it perfect). Spread the butter all over the dough

Next sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture (sorry no pictures, was in a rush) and roll the dough. Cut into 15 pieces and place into baking dish. (if you don't plan on baking right away just cover and place in refrigerator).
