    I like the mechanics of this: just to make one Texas size roll. I'm glad that I upped the sugar \/cinnamon for the filling as it needs it. Since not everyone in the household likes caramel, I opted just to glaze it instead.<\/p>","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"11\/03\/2016 19:38","GUID":"207463ee6c774674bdf53bb47ea254b3","MemberId":1604521,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"ms11145","SubmittedDate":"11\/03\/2016 19:38"},{"Comment":"

    I loved the sauce on this - it came out very much like a butterscotch. The rolls themselves were perfect, soft texture.<\/p>","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"10\/06\/2016 18:20","GUID":"fed52f4d832b4854a046a949aeec2850","MemberId":4631582,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"aug2295","SubmittedDate":"10\/06\/2016 18:20"},{"Comment":"

    The idea is really cute, and the bread part is really tender and delicious. The topping needs a bit more specific direction. Stir or not stir the sugar? Does it make a syrup? About how long should it take? I got impatient and ended up with a tasty, but crunchy topping. I did substitute fat free half and half for the cream in the bread dough and skim milk in the topping, and it was no problem.<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"10\/02\/2016 21:09","GUID":"2D65CAA169F141718E605A5B5D96F6A5","MemberId":1201160,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"i_like_pie","SubmittedDate":"10\/02\/2016 21:09"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
