Caramel Rolls

"This is my mom's recipe. She used to make these all the time when I was a child and they would barely get out of the oven before everyone dug in. I've made them for my family and my in-laws, and I always get a ton of compliments. I've seen other recipes on here (but they all use pudding or ice cream), but this truly is a SIMPLE recipe."

  1. Love this simple but delicious recipe. Sometimes I add apple slices before I roll them up.
     
  2. This certainly is an easy recipe to make, & as you indicated, they don't last long at all! Although my son dropped by & had several, it was mostly just the 2 of us who devoured them all! A keeper of a recipe, for sure! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's Pick A Chef event]
