Pecan Rolls

From candymonkies 15 years ago

A very delicious and fattening dessert. It is the iconic treat of my great grandmother. It is perfect for an after dinner treat or breakfast.

Mix yeast, warm water, and 1 tsb. sugar and set aside.
Mix 1/2 cup sugar, Crisco, and salt, until well blended.
Add scalded milk.
Once blended, stir in yeast mixture.
Add eggs and flour. Beat until smooth.
Place on floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until dough has lost it's stickiness.
Place in greased bowl, turning once in grease. Cover with clean towel and let sit until doubled in bulk (4-8 hours).
Once doubled preheat oven to 325.
Cut dough in halves and roll into oblong shape about 12 x 15.
Spread each half with 1/4 cup butter, 3/4 cup brow sugar and a shake of cinnamon.
Roll into log and cut into 12 or 14 pieces each.
Boil 3/4 cup butter, and brown sugar until sugar is melted. Stir in 2 tbsp milk.
Pour mixture into bottom of 9x9" pan. Sprinkle with walnuts.
Place dough slices into the pan. You should be able to see the swirls from above.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Once cool, turn upside down and pull rolls apart to eat.
