Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, divided
• 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed, divided
• 1/2 cup pecan halves
• 1 (10-ounce) package refrigerated pizza crust
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a small saucepan, combine 3 tablespoons butter, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup brown sugar over low heat, stirring constantly until butter is melted. Immediately pour into bottom of an 8- or 9-inch round cake pan, tilting pan to completely cover its bottom. Immediately arrange pecan halves flat side up over syrup. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in saucepan.

Unroll pizza dough on a floured surface and brush with butter. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar and cinnamon. Starting at wide end, roll dough up jelly roll style. With a sharp knife, cut into 8 equal slices. Arrange slices cut side up in cake pan.

Bake 20 to 22 minutes, or until golden. Remove from oven and immediately invert onto a serving platter. Be careful: sugar is very hot. Allow to cool slightly and serve warm.
