- 3/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

- Bake rolls in the preheated oven for 8 minutes until they begin to set.
- Remove rolls from oven and brush each with the reserved 2 tablespoons of sugar mixture. Return to oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and, if desired, sprinkle additional chopped pecans on top before serving.
Notes
