Step2Heat oven to 350°F. On well-floured surface, roll one part of the dough into 10-inch round (dough will be sticky). Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with one-third each of the brown sugar and pecans; lightly press into dough with rolling pin. Repeat with remaining dough, melted butter, brown sugar and pecans.
