WEEKEND PECAN ROLL

Category: Desserts

8 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
Butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 2/3 cup chopped pecans
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Juice of 1 lemon

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a jellyroll pan with cooking spray. Place 1 sheet of the phyllo on the pan and spray lightly with cooking spray. Place another sheet on top of the first and continue as above until all the sheets have been sprayed. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, pecans and cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over phyllo, leaving 1 inch along the edges. Tightly roll, jellyroll-style, pressing ends to seal. Bake 20 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and cool slightly.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and lemon juice. Drizzle over the warm roll, which will be about 4 inches tall. Cut crosswise into 1-inch rounds and serve warm.
