If you're working with thawed frozen dough, pull off balls the size of a golf ball (otherwise start with thawed frozen rolls) and dip in the brown sugar mixture, rolling to coat. Place in the greased pan. When all the dough is dipped, shake any remaining sugar overtop, and then pour over the melted butter. Cover with a tea towel and let rest on the countertop for an hour or overnight. If they dough is already thawed, put them in the fridge overnight. In the morning, preheat the oven to 350F and bake for 25 minutes. Invert on a serving plate while still warm.
