Step 1
Dip balls of dough in melted butter, then roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Step 2
Pour a layer of caramel sauce in the bottom of a greased tube pan. Sprinkle pecans on caramel sauce. Place half of the coated dough balls in the tube pan.
Step 3
Drizzle with caramel sauce and top with pecans. Arrange remaining balls over caramel sauce.
TIP: Save time by kneading the dough and refrigerating overnight. The next day, let the dough sit on the counter for 30 minutes, then continue as the recipe directs.
