   5               cups  all-purpose flour -- plus more for dusting
   1                  C  warm 2% milk -- (110F to 115F), (to 1/4C)
      1/3           cup  unsalted butter -- melted, plus more for greasing
      1/4           cup  sugar
   1           teaspoon  salt

   1                cup  packed brown sugar

   6        tablespoons  chopped pecans
                         Assembly:
   1                cup  sugar

Active: 40 min
Total: 14:15

Dissolve the yeast in the water in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add 3 
cups of the flour, the milk, butter, sugar, salt and eggs. Beat on 
medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to 
form a firm dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until 
smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning 
once to grease the top. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Generously butter a 10" bundt pan. Bring the brown sugar, butter and 
cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. 
Pour half into the greased bundt pan and sprinkle with the pecans.

Punch the risen dough down and shape into 40 balls (1 to 1 1/4" in 
diameter). Mix together the sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.

Pour the melted butter into another bowl. Roll the balls in the 
butter and then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place 20 balls in 
the bundt pan and top with remaining caramel and the pecans. Lastly, 
place the final 20 balls of dough into the pan. Cover the bundt pan 
and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Bake until the top is a deep golden brown, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool for 
10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate. Serve warm.
