Caramel Bubble Ring

  • 25 mins
  • 60 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 11-ounc packages (12 each)refrigerated breadsticks
  • 1/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 1/2 cup caramel-ice-cream topping
  • 2 tablespoons maple-flavored syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Generously grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan. Sprinkle half of the pecans in the bottom of the prepared pan; set aside. In a small bowl, stir together sugar and cinnamon; set aside.

Separate each package of breadstick doughs on the perforated lines into 6 spiral pieces, making 12 pieces total. Do not unroll. Cut the pieces in half crosswise. Dip each piece of dough into melted butter; roll in the sugar mixture to coat. Arrange dough pieces in the prepared pan.

Sprinkle with remaining pecans. In a measuring cup, stir together the caramel topping and maple-flavored syrup. Drizzle this mixture over dough pieces in the pan.

Bake in a 350-degree oven for about 35 minutes or until dough is light brown, covering with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent overbrowning.

Let stand for 1 minute only. (If it stands for more than 1 minute, the ring will be difficult to remove from pan.) Invert onto a serving platter. Spoon any topping and nuts remaining in the pan onto the rolls.

Serve warm.
