In large mixer bowl combine 2 cups flour and yeast. In 1 quart saucepan combine 1/4 cup sugar, milk, 1/4 cup butter and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until warm (115 to 120øF). Add to flour mixture; add egg. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes). Beat at high speed, scraping bowl often, 3 minutes. By hand, stir in enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover; let rise in warm place until double in size (about 1 1/2 hour). Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.
Punch down dough; divide in half. Roll each half into 12" square. In medium bowl stir together filling ingredients. Spread half over each 12" square. Roll each 12" square up jelly roll fashion; pinch to seal seams well. Cut each into 12 rolls. Place on greased cookie sheets 3 to 4" apart (about 6 rolls per cookie sheet). Cover with waxed paper. With rolling pin flatten each roll to about 3" in diameter. Do not remove waxed paper; let rise in warm place 30 minutes.
Heat oven to 400ø. With rolling pin flatten to 1/8" thickness; remove waxed paper. Brush rolls with 1/4 cup melted butter. In small bowl stir together 1 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, sprinkle over rolls. Sprinkle pecans over rolls. Cover with waxed paper; roll flat. Remove waxed paper. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan immediately.
Orange Krispies: Omit cinnamon in filling. Add 1 tablespoon grated orange peel to filling. Omit cinnamon and pecans in topping. Add 1/2 cup sliced almonds and 1 teaspoon grated orange peel to topping.
