1
In a bowl, mix together the soft butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, salt and the vanilla with a hand mixer. Whip the ingredients into a smooth consistency. Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by dropping a large spoonful of the mixture into the bottom of each cup. Evenly distribute the macadamia nuts over the butter- sugar mixture.
2
For the puff pastry, lay one sheet of the thawed puff pastry out on a lightly floured surface. Brush half of the melted butter over the sheet of pastry. Sprinkle with half of the brown sugar. Roll the pastry dough up into a log shape, and slice into 6 even pieces. Place each pastry roll into a muffin cup on top of the butter, sugar and nuts. Repeat with the next sheet of pastry.
3
Bake the sticky buns at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until the sugar is bubbling and the pastry is golden brown. Wait between 2-4 minutes for the buns to slightly cool, and then turn them out onto a plate.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
