moderate heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until sugar dissolves and mixture
is combined. Pour caramel into prepared pan.2. Combine flour
and 1 tablespoon of the remaining sugar in a bowl. Rub in remaining butter to
make crumbs. Add milk; using a round-bladed knife, mix to form a soft, sticky
dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth.3. Roll out the
dough to form a 42cm x 28cm rectangle. Brush with the extra butter; sprinkle
with remaining sugar, cinnamon and walnuts. Roll up dough, from the long side,
to form a log. Cut into 16 equal portions. Place portions, cut-side down and
side by side, over base of prepared pan. Place the pan on a baking tray. Bake
for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into a bun comes out clean. Stand in
pan for 5 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool slightly
