QUICK CARAMEL ROLLS
Use Pillsbury's Crescent Rounds to make these messy but oh-so-gooey-good caramel rolls. Even though the directions on the crescent rounds say to bake them for 10-12 minutes, you have to bake these for at least 20 minutes (I usually end up baking mine a little longer) because they're sitting in a caramelly goo and will end up still being doughy if not baked long enough.

Steps:
- For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch square baking dish with butter.

Tips:
- Prep the Caramel: Making the caramel ahead of time (up to 2 days) allows it to thicken and develop a richer flavor.
- Use Room-Temperature Ingredients: This helps the dough come together smoothly and evenly.
- Don't Overwork the Dough: Overworking can make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the Dough Rise Properly: This is crucial for achieving light and fluffy rolls. Let the dough rise until it doubles in size.
- Roll the Dough Evenly: This ensures uniform baking. Use a rolling pin and apply even pressure.
- Cut the Rolls Evenly: Use a sharp knife or bench scraper to make clean cuts. This helps the rolls rise evenly.
- Bake at the Right Temperature: The oven temperature should be accurate to ensure proper baking. Use an oven thermometer if needed.
- Don't Overbake the Rolls: Overbaking can dry them out. Keep an eye on them and remove them from the oven as soon as they're golden brown.
- Serve Warm: Caramel rolls are best enjoyed warm, when the caramel is gooey and the rolls are soft and fluffy.
