Soft, crunchy, and sweet, this Honey Pecan Roll will get a smile from everyone. It’s made with a simple cake batter combined with pieces of pecans and cream from just two ingredients, then topped with more pecan nuts and drizzled with a chocolate ganache.

It’s a guest-pleasing dessert, that will only seem as if you spent all day baking…but you know the truth. This dessert does not take too long to make, but pleases like a bakery dessert. Also, the ganache drizzle and nuts on top make this roll absolute perfection.

You will first need to cook (or buy) Dulce de Leche for the cream. Dulce de Leche is boiled Sweet Condensed milk.

What do I need to make this recipe?

  • eggs
  • sugar
  • honey
  • baking soda
  • lemon juice
  • all-purpose flour
  • pecans
  • unsalted butter
  • cooked condensed milk (dulce de leche)

Steps

Preheat oven to 350F.

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a full size baking sheet.

In an electrical mixer, beat 4 large eggs and 3/4 cup sugar for 2 minutes.

Add in 1 Tablespoon of honey.

In a cup combine 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice together. It will foam up, add to the mix.
