. Her “Diva” series is a fun one, and, as an added bonus, each book comes with an assortment of recipes in the back of the book that were mentioned throughout the story. If you're anything like me your mouth will be watering the entire time you read this book! A big fan of the bread machine, I decided to give Krista’s ABM Cinnamon Rolls a try. Here is the recipe right out of the book. There are many more, but you're just going to have to buy the book to get those!
I made these exactly as the recipe states -- with wonderful results, I might add -- but I turned mine into Butter Pecan Rolls by using a different topping (see recipe below) on mine instead of the cream cheese frosting. They are excellent either way, so try them both.
Topping:
In each of two 9-1/2” x 5” x 3” metal loaf pans (I used glass pans and melted everything in the microwave.) mix ½ cup brown sugar, ¼ cup butter and 1 tablespoon light corn syrup. Heat slowly, stirring frequently until blended. Remove from heat. Sprinkle 1/3 cup pecans in each pan.

| Buttery, sugary, pecan-y goodness! |
