Sticky Buns

My mother made these for breakfast when I was a little girl.  I've come to find that these aren't what everyone recognizes as "Sticky Buns", but as far as our family goes they are the original.

They are delicious, sticky and sweet.  Best of all they are a snap to make.

Sticky Buns

1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. light corn syrup
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/4 t. cinnamon
1/4 c. maraschino cherry halves
1/4 c. raisins
1/4 c. walnuts or pecans
1 recipe of biscuits (approximately 8-10 two and one-half inch biscuits) OR 1 can of refrigerated biscuits

Set oven to 425 degrees.  Put butter into 9" cake pan and place in oven to melt. (Watch carefully!)  When melted, remove from oven and add syrup, sugar and cinnamon; stir until well combined.  Sprinkle with nuts, cherries and raisins.  Place biscuits on top, then bake for 12-14 minutes.  Check center biscuits to make certain they are not doughy.  Invert onto large plate and enjoy while still warm.

I quadruple this recipe for our family.
