Just in time for Thanksgiving, we are sharing our favorite America’s Test Kitchen top 20 recipe for you to try for your holiday crowd: Sticky Buns. Many recipes for sticky buns call for a firm, dry dough that’s easy to manipulate into the required spiral, simple to slice, and study enough to support a generous amount of topping. But firm, dry sticky buns aren’t very appealing. To make a softer, more tender, and moist sticky bun check out this 20th anniversary special sticky bun recipe. This is sure to be a holiday crowd pleaser!
