Pepperidge Farm Pecan Caramel Sweet Rolls

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Spray a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Set aside. In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over low heat, stirring well; set aside. Now it’s time to start layering. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the nuts into the bottom of the bundt pan.

Then cut the cream cheese into about 20 equal pieces. Unroll the sweet rolls & cut into smaller strips. Place a cube of cream cheese in the center of each piece.

Then wrap & seal the sweet roll around the cream cheese by pinching the edges together with your fingers. Continue until finished making all of the bundles.

Sprinkle the sweet roll bundles with the cinnamon & sugar mixture, pour half of the melted butter mixture over the sweet rolls, and sprinkle on a 1/2 cup of pecans on top. Top with one package of caramel icing (that comes with the sweet rolls).

Then do it all over again! Layer the remaining sweet roll cream cheese bundles on top, sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon & sugar, pour the remaining butter mixture over the rolls, sprinkle with the remaining nuts & drizzle with the last package of caramel.

ready to go into the oven
Bake for about 30 minutes (watching closely). I ended up cooking mine just a little bit longer than that. You’ll know it is done when the sweet rolls have a slight golden brown look. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Place a plate on top and flip it over. Yum!
