Ina’s Buns

I haven’t gotten around to trying Ina’s Easy Sticky Buns.  But online, I’ve come across folks who have.  And the results are a mixed bag.

First was The Amateur Gourmet.  His post was titled Burnt Sticky Buns.  Pretty much sums it up.

Then Meleyna posted her tale.

I have to say that I’ve lost some of my enthusiasm to try this recipe.  If The Amateur Gourmet can’t bring a Barefoot Contessa recipe to life, then what chance do I stand?  But I suppose I’ll never know until I try.  What about you?  Have you tried it yet?

Over at foodnetwork.com, that recipe has gotten mostly positive reviews.  I just dunno.  Someone, please, help me decide what to do about Ina’s Buns.
