Simple coffeecake ! Simply delicious

A good friend of mine, Wayne (or the Wayner, as I call him) is an excellent cook. He always makes the best tailgate food, trying new recipes and "wow-ing" us with his expertise....

He gave me this simple recipe, and I've had the best time making it, and impressing people.. They think it must have taken lots of time and effort, but to your amazement, IT DOESN'T !

It was from the cook, Paula Deen on the Food Channel, and it's fantastic !

I plan on making it tonight as a thank you to the nice man, Mike, at the bookstore, who found a poem I described to him that I have been looking for for 25 YEARS ! The poem was from a poetry volumne of a set of books for young people that my mother and her sister had growing up. My grandmother, Dodie, was a poet herself, writing poetry all of her life. When we grew up, we memorized favorite poems, and my mother would recite many for us that she had learned as a child....

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE FOUND THAT POEM !! I'M SO HAPPY ABOUT IT ! THANK YOU, MIKE, THAT WAS SO NICE OF YOU ! Oh, also, I even had the Name of the poem, wrong-- I thought it was called "Hildegarde", when the actual name was "The Dead Dolly"- so how he was able to track it down, I do not know !

Anyway, on to the recipe:

Ultimate Coffee Cake

16 to 18 unbaked frozen dinner rolls ( Rhodes brand)

1 (3-ounce) package regular butterscotch pudding mix, not instant

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup pecans, chopped

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted

The night before place frozen rolls in well greased Bundt pan. Sprinkle dry pudding mix over rolls. Sprinkle brown sugar over pudding mix. Sprinkle chopped pecans over brown sugar. Pour melted butter over all. To prevent the dough from forming a hard crust while its rising overnight, cover with a damp towel or tightly wrap with plastic wrap. Let rise overnight at room temperature, about 8 to 10 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Bake in oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Turn pan over onto a serving platter to remove. Serve by pulling apart chunks with forks.
