Ingredients
1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup melted butter
2 cups chopped pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
Fold the quartered biscuit pieces and chopped pecans into the syrup mixture until well coated.
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the syrup is bubbling vigorously.
Allow the dessert to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving to let the sauce thicken.
Notes
Ensure the biscuit pieces are evenly coated so they absorb the syrup properly. For added depth, lightly toast the pecans in a dry skillet before mixing them in. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
