Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or round cake pan with cooking spray or butter.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar and heavy cream until smooth and well combined. Pour this caramel mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the caramel layer.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon together to create the cinnamon sugar.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over each triangle.
Starting from the wide end, roll up each triangle tightly into a crescent shape. Place the rolled crescents, point side down, into the prepared pan on top of the caramel and pecans.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Let the caramel rolls cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then carefully invert the pan onto a large serving plate to release the rolls. The caramel and pecans will now be on top.
Serve warm and enjoy your easy Saturday morning treat!
