Provided by Gabriela Rodiles

Categories     dessert

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Unsalted butter, at room temperature, for the baking dish
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
One 16.3-ounce can refrigerated biscuits, such as Pillsbury
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch square baking dish with butter.
  • Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Cut the biscuits into quarters, then toss in the cinnamon-sugar until well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  • For the caramel sauce: Meanwhile, heat the cream, brown sugar, granulated sugar and butter together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally with a heatproof silicone spatula, until all of the sugar has dissolved, about 4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of the caramel sauce for serving.
  • Pour the remaining caramel over the biscuits. Bake until golden brown and crisp at the edges, about 30 minutes.
  • For the whipped cream: While biscuits are baking, whisk the cream and confectioners' sugar together in another medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy and whipped to stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Let the biscuits cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter. Drizzle with the reserved 1/4 cup of caramel sauce and serve warm with the whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Proof the yeast according to the package directions to ensure it is active.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
  • Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the caramel filling evenly over it.
  • Roll the dough up tightly and cut it into 12 equal pieces.
  • Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven and adjust rack to middle position before baking.
  • Bake the rolls for about 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

These caramel rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion.
