So Carrie is gone with some friends out of town this weekend for some shopping. Since its just me and the boys I wanted to spoil them with a special breakfast. I remember as a kid spending the night at a good friend's house and we made this great monkey bread for the morning after. We got to help roll the little balls of dough in the sugar and put them in the pan. I wanted to share that same experience with my boys. I recently contacted her and asked for the recipe so I could share it. I've modified it slightly to salt up the caramel a little and smooth it out so its less grainy. Thanks Debbie Valiant for the help. The boys loved it!
Monkey Bread
3 cans regular size buttermilk biscuits 1/2c sugar1/2tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 stick margarine, 3/4 c sugar, 3/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp salt - all melted together in the microwave
Cut biscuits into quarters (I use kitchen scissors), roll in sugar cinnamon mixture, pile about half into greased & floured bundt pan, pour some of melted mixture over, then pile rest of biscuits in and pour rest of melted mixture over.
350 degrees for 35 min. Let stand 10 min, then invert onto platter.
