These little sticky pecan rolls are so easy to make with a few shortcut steps! Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a round cake pan, set aside. You can also use a pie dish.
In a small bowl, heat the butter in the microwave for about 1 minute or until melted. The butter doesn’t need to be boiling, just melted enough for basting. In another small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
Lightly flour a surface (or a piece of parchment or rolling mat), unroll one of the crescent sheets. Then lightly flour the top of the crescent sheet, use a rolling pin to roll the dough to about 1/4 inch thick.
Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the top of the dough with the melted butter, reserving the remaining for later. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over top the melted butter.
Then, starting on the long edge, roll up the dough into a log. Using a sharp knife, divide into 12 equal pieces, set aside. Repeat the process with the other crescent sheet.
In the lightly greased round cake pan, evenly sprinkle the dark brown sugar on the bottom of the pan and pour the remaining butter on top of the brown sugar. Then top with the chopped pecans, Arrange all the cut pieces on top of the pecans, swirl side up.
Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
Then, carefully using oven mitts, place a serving plate on top of the rolls in the pan and flip them out onto the serving dish so that the pecans are on top.
Serve immediately or cool and refrigerate in an airtight container.
