Easy Cinnamon Sticky Buns

Traveling with children is always interesting and it helps to have something sweet for them in the morning. (For that matter, it helps with the older folks too!) Cinnamon buns are a great solution and easy to make. The problem with these sticky buns, loaded with melted brown sugar and pecans, is that they are irresistible. And, once you have one, you must have another.
