Recipe Courtesy of Paula DeenServings: 6 to 8 servings
Cook Time: 30 min
Difficulty: Easy
16 to 18 unbaked frozen dinner rolls
1 (3-ounce) package regular butterscotch pudding mix, not instant
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted
The night before place frozen rolls in well greased Bundt pan. Sprinkle dry pudding mix over rolls. Sprinkle brown sugar over pudding mix. Sprinkle chopped pecans over brown sugar. Pour melted butter over all. To prevent the dough from forming a hard crust while its rising overnight, cover with a damp towel or tightly wrap with plastic wrap. Let rise overnight at room temperature, about 8 to 10 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake in oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Turn pan over onto a serving platter to remove. Serve by pulling apart chunks with forks.

I love to watch your show with or without your family. You are full of surprises because you are genuine. You take a bite and don't get all bent out of shape if you wear some of it on your face. You have some wonderful receipes and great ideas. I want to buy a set of your red cookware as I just love it and besides you recommend it. In 2008 my husband and I planned a vacation to come and visit the Lady and Sons restaurant but my husband came down ill and we haven't been able to have a vacation since. But on my bucket list is to meet you in person, so I shall persue that and hope. You have a beautiful family and a lovely home. Thanks for sharing your life with me and all the other viewers. One of your fans. Claudette Damron

DO you layer the rolls w/the pudding, sugar and nuts or just put all the rolls in and put the rest of the ingredients on top?

I noticed a few questions on amount and type of rolls. I prefer the frozen yeast rolls and the amount is truly up to you. I use the smaller ones and cut them in half, they will be on top of and beside each other. You can also place in a loaf pan instead of a bundt pan and it works just as well. My family has used the yeast rolls for about 30 years now.. they rise in the fridge overnight as she put in her directions and taste gooey and yummy out of the oven. Hope this answers some questions.

I have been making these for years! Great for potluck desserts as well as a large breakfast group for holiday mornings. Quick and easy you can throw them in the oven while you get coffee and juice going. Then everyone can have a hot breakfast without all the fuss and clean up is a breeze!! Besides that... they taste AMAZING!!!

I am wondering the same thing, Susan. If the rolls are supposed to rise, I would assume that yeast rolls would be used. I'm not too sure biscuits would achieve the same results. Anyone else have an idea???? Thanks

Paula, I have used so many of your receipes and have never been disappointed. I have learned to love your family by watching you for years. It makes you seem you are a part of my family also. My son laughs because I bought your cookware and magazines. However, in my heart I know that is what makes me a good cook, just like you. Best wishes and lots of love from my kitchen to yours.

This is the yummiest coffee cake ever! I've taken it to work several times, and everyone raves about it and asks for the recipe. I've even tried it using different flavors of pudding, but butterscotch is the best!
