Outrageous Sticky Buns

milk (about 110F/ 43C)

yeast

sugar

egg (at room temperature)

butter

all-purpose flour

salt

brown sugar

cinnamon

chocolate chips

golden syrup or corn syrup

¼ cup cream or milk

vanilla extract

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in a ¼ cup of hot milk and set aside.

In a large bowl mix milk, sugar, melted butter, salt, and egg.  Add 2 cups of flour and mix until smooth. Add yeast mixture. Mix in remaining flour until dough is easy to handle.

Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 to 10 minutes. Place in an oiled bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in size, usually 2 to 3 hours.

To quick rise the dough:

Place an 8-ounce cup of hot water into the microwave and heat on high for 3 minutes to moisten the oven.

Remove the mug and place the bowl with the dough into the microwave and heat on its lowest setting (10% power) for 3 minutes.

Let the dough rest in the microwave for 3 minutes.

Heat the dough (still on it&#039;s lowest setting) for another 3 minutes and let the dough rest in the microwave for 5 minutes.

While the dough rests, prepare the caramel.

For the caramel:

Combine the sugar and syrup in a medium saucepan. Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly until it becomes a light caramel color.

Add the butter, salt &amp; cream stir until smooth. Remove from heat and mix in the vanilla.

Set aside to cool slightly, then pour into a microwave-safe baking pan. (I used an 8-inch square).

Roll out on a floured surface into a 15 by 9-inch rectangle.

Spread melted butter all over the dough. Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over buttered dough and then scatter with chocolate chips.

Beginning at the 15-inch side, roll up the dough and pinch the edge together to seal. Cut into 10 - 12 slices.

Preheat the oven to 350f/175c

Place the buns on the pan with the caramel leaving a bit of room for the second rise (about 2 inches).  Repeat the rising instructions with the buns in the pan until doubled in size.

Bake on 350f for 20 - 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before flipping onto a serving tray and serve warm.
