very very hard to flip at the end...big mess. 5 kids and none of them liked them, I guess they prefer frosting on their buns...

Loved this and loved that it was so easy, my kids to do a lot of the work, which they really enjoyed. Excellent recipe. I halved it, but still got about 10.

My mother made these Christmas morning when we all came home and they were so good that we have a new tradition! My husband even begged my mom for the recipe so I could make them at home!

The first time I made this recipe I didn't add water into the sauce and it made the sauce taste so good its unreal. I also made it without molasses, I highly dislike the taste of molasses.

Everyone loved them and wanted more....Next time I'll use less water and Karo syrup.

II would add less water, it was quite runny coming out of the oven. They were very good, I'll definitely make them again!

I made this buns using the Easy Yeast Rolls recipe,instead of the frozen bread dough and instead of molasses used Maple syrup. Very delicious, Give them a try!
