Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350. Melt butter in small saucepan. Coat bottom and sides of 12-cup fluted tube pan with 2 T. of the melted butter; sprinkle pan with 3 T. of the nuts. Add remaining nuts, brown sugar and water to remaining melted butter. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove dough from both cans; do not unroll. Cut each long roll into 8 slices. Arrange 8 slices, cut side down, in nut-lined pan; separate layers of each pinwheel slightly. Spoon half of brown sugar mixture over dough. Place remaining 8 dough slices alternately over bottom layer. Spoon remaining brown sugar mixture over slices. Bake at 35o for 23-33 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool 3 minutes. Invert onto serving platter or waxed paper. Serve warm.
