This is going to be one of the most amazing Pecan Sticky Bun you will ever have, not to mention they are incredibly easy to make! Rhodes frozen cinnamon roll are covered in a butterscotch pudding mix, then topped with a brown sugar and butter mixture. Let them rise for a few hours (or over night!), bake them up and they are ooey-gooey and cinnamon-y. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a special holiday morning!

Don’t worry they don’t taste like butterscotch pudding, they taste like caramel, butter and cinnamon. Perfect combo!
