Directions
- Lightly grease an 11x7x1-1/2-inch baking pan; set aside. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, nuts and cinnamon.
- On a lightly floured surface, pat each thawed roll into a 3-1/2-inch circle. Brush each circle with a little of the melted butter. Place about 1 tablespoon of the nut mixture onto the center of each dough circle. Bring up edges of each roll and pinch to seal and enclose filling. Place filled rolls, seam sides down, in prepared pan. Cover and let rise in warm place until nearly double in size (about 30 minutes).
