Melinda's Notes:
i got this recipie from "the dinner diva". one word: AMAZING!!!

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

This recipe is very similar to monkey bread. It was very easy to make - I love preparing something the night before and just having to pop it in the oven. (It looked like I had worked really hard while my family was still sleeping lol.)

Next time I may add a little more butter to the mix. As it was, I put a little butter on each piece when I served it. YUM!

NOTE: Be sure to oil your pan well to prevent your buns from sticking.

Directions

Lightly grease a 10-inch bundt cake pan. Place frozen rolls into the pan and sprinkle with brown sugar, the pudding mix and cinnamon. Pour melted butter over the top. If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a muffin tin, but they turn out better in a bundt pan.

Cover with a clean, damp cloth and leave overnight at room temperature to rise.

In the morning, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake rolls for 25 minutes, until golden brown. Turn rolls out onto a serving plate and dig in!

I have a recipie almost like this one but instead of vanilla instant pudding I used butterscotch instant pudding and some (about 1/2 c.)chopped pecans.

Gladys, my recipe is almost like yours, but it uses the cook and serve butterscotch pudding (with the sugar in it). The end product is fabulous! I used the loaves of sweet dough and just cut them into the dinner roll size pieces by cutting each loaf into six pieces. The first time I made these, it was very hot and during the overnight raising the rolls went berserk! I was making them for a potluck breakfast and was worried about them, but I punched them down lightly until they fit back in the pan and all turned out well!!
