We have had these sticky buns my whole life and everyone must try them. They are so soft and light. Seriously delicious! I always pour the extra sauce from the bottom all over them so I can scoop it up off the plate for a little extra glaze on the buns. And that glaze, I seriously want to know who made it all up. I mean, pudding, butter and brown sugar and it makes this awesomeness?!

Genius!! I’ve been eating these things for years and years and it never gets old to me! I could devour an entire pan and the belly ache would be worth it for sure.

Our girls even beg for these sticky buns every holiday now. I certainly am not one to discourage any kind of tradition that revolves around food. In fact, I believe  those are the best kinds of traditions and trust me it’s not just because I’m a food blogger.

Ingredients 

  • Rhodes Rolls, 18 staggered. Overcrowding will cause them to not rise and bake properly
  • 1/2 Package Butterscotch Pudding, Cook and Serve, not Instant
  • 1/2 Cup Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar

Instructions 

  • Spray your bundt pan and stagger the frozen Rhodes rolls.
    Rhodes Rolls
  • Sprinkle the rolls with 1/2 pkg of Butterscotch pudding.
    1/2 Package Butterscotch Pudding
  • Melt the butter and brown sugar together and pour over rolls and dry pudding.
    1/2 Cup Butter, 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
  • Cover with Saran Wrap and let rise 4-5 hours at room temperature depending on the temperature of your kitchen. *See note.
  • Bake at 350 for 20-25 min.
  • Be so careful to not over or under bake. I usually do 22 min and then check them.

Recipe Notes

You can also let them rise through the night in the refrigerator. They will need a good 9 to 12 hours in the fridge.
Sticky buns can be kept for up to 4 days at room temperature.

    On the sticky buns, is it 1/2 a 3.9 oz. Pkg or the larger pkg of butterscotch pudding mix?

    1. Sweet Basil says:

      Yes, half of the package of the 3.4oz box.

  2. 2pots2cook says:

  3. Alicia says:

    Do you use cook and serve butterscotch or instant?

  4. jane says:

    I remember these! SOOO YUMMY! You have to try this super easy and super delicious sticky bun recipe: 1 can Grands Biscuits, Homestyle. Cut each biscuit into 8pieces and shake in a bag with about 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1Tbls. cinnammon. Melt 1/2 a stick of butter and then add 2 Tbls. Karo Syrup and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Mix well. Drop spoonful of syrup into bottom of muffin tins. Place 5 pieces of biscuit on top. (Will have extra pieces, just add to ones that look small) Bake 350 for 12 minutes. Let cool a minute and scoop out…YUM

    My mom (my grandma started the tradition) always makes this for conference Sunday. We love it!

  7. Becky says:

    These look amazing!!! My friend would make them but cut the dough up in little balls and then put them in the bundt pan. It is so delicious!!

  8. Jaime says:

    YUM – those look so good, i want some now for breakfast!

  9. Spectacular Six says:

    My mom always made them for Christmas too!!! It is the one food tradition we have. (We like to change up the main meal every year.) We would let them rise in the fridge overnight and then put them in the cold oven. They turn out perfectly every time!

    My mom used to make those for Christmas, too! I haven’t had those in a very long time. They are so good I want to cry.
