• 3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup pecans, toasted and chopped
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 3 tablespoons milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Arrange frozen biscuits, with sides touching, in 3 rows of 4 biscuits on a lightly floured surface.
2. Let stand for 30 to 45 minutes or until the biscuits are thawed but still cool to the touch.
3. Pour boiling water over dried apricots to cover and let stand for 10 minutes; drain well.
4. Chop the drained apricots into small pieces.
5. Sprinkle thawed biscuits lightly with flour.
6. Press biscuit edges together and pat to form a 10 x 12 inch rectangle of dough; spread evenly with softened butter.
7. In a bowl, stir together 3/4 cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over the buttered dough.
8. Evenly distribute the chopped apricots and 1/2 cup chopped pecans over the brown sugar mixture.
9. Starting at one long end, roll up the dough tightly; cut into 12 slices, each about 1 inch thick.
10. Place the rolls into a lightly greased 10-inch cast iron skillet or a 10-inch round pan or a 9-inch square pan.
11. Bake at 375°F for 35 to 40 minutes or until the center rolls are golden and fully baked.
12. In a separate bowl, stir together 1 cup powdered sugar, 3 tablespoons milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; drizzle evenly over the warm rolls.
