Kitchen Aide Mixer is the key here to not have to knead the dough which can take a while to do, it has a dough hook and I love mine. I make all sorts of homemade breads with it and just today made the dough for carmel pecan rolls which took no timeat all to do following the recipe because my mixer did the work for me. The hardest thing for me was waiting for the dough to rise then punch it down and rise again. My personal time to get the dough made and rolled out, putting a thin layer of brown sugar on and a sprinkling of chopped pecans, then rolling it up as a jelly roll was no more than 2 hours total which I believe it leans closer to the hours side but I didn’t time it. My rolls are right now in the form of jelly rolls in the refridge waiting to slice, let rise and bake on Thanksgiving morning.
