A Sticky Holiday Tradition

It is not Christmas morning without Mom's delicious homemade caramel rolls. After a little prep the night before, we would get up early in the morning and put the caramel rolls in the oven to bake while we were opening presents. Smelling the delicious caramel rolls baking on Christmas morning is one of my favorite family traditions. Give em a try, they may become one of your favorites too!
