Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 2 (6 ounces) Pillsbury Grands Homestyle biscuits
- 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
Syrup and Sweeteners:
- 1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Fats and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/4 cup salted butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Prepare the oven to 350°F and lightly coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In a spacious mixing bowl, thoroughly combine corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until achieving a silky, uniform mixture.
- Slice refrigerated biscuits into eight equal triangular segments, then incorporate them into the syrupy base along with chopped pecans.
- Tenderly blend the ingredients, ensuring biscuit pieces and pecans are completely enveloped in the caramel-like sauce.
- Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly across the surface.
- Slide the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, monitoring for a golden-brown top and bubbling edges. The center should remain slightly wobbly.
- If edges brown too quickly, loosely cover with aluminum foil to prevent excessive charring.
- Once baked, remove from oven and position on a wire cooling rack for 20 minutes, allowing the filling to stabilize and set.
- While cooling, whisk powdered sugar and milk together in a small bowl to create a smooth glaze.
- Drizzle the prepared glaze generously over the surface of the bubble up.
- Serve warm, scooping directly from the baking dish for a delightful dessert experience.
Notes
- Ensure biscuit pieces are evenly coated with the sweet syrup mixture to guarantee consistent flavor in every bite.
- Chop pecans roughly for better texture distribution and to help them adhere to the biscuit pieces during baking.
- Cover with aluminum foil midway through baking if the top browns too quickly, preventing burning while allowing the center to cook thoroughly.
- Let the dessert rest for the full 20 minutes after baking to help the filling set and make slicing easier, creating cleaner serving portions.
