Recipe: Monkey Bread
Yes, dessert is always THE BEST! I made this for our weekly Jersey Shore party where upon placing it in the coffee table it was absolutely ATTACKED, VIOLATED AND DISMEMBERED! I was lucky I got this picture of what it was before (especially my brother) gulped it down.
I researched a lot of recipes for this but finally came to one that I adjusted for what I liked. I should warn you all, I didn't measure... I was doing it all by eye.
Ingredients:
- 4 cans of refrigerated Pillsbury's biscuits (they're at Walmart for like less than $3, for the pack)
- 1 3/4 cups of white sugar
- 3 tablespoons of Cinnamon
- 2 sticks of butter or 1 full cup (REAL BUTTER, PEOPLE!!)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- 1/4 brown sugar
Melt the butter and add the 3/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar and vanilla - bring to a light boil (or you can microwave the hell out of it) Put the liquid mixture to the side.
Mix one cup of sugar & the cinnamon - dip cut up biscuit sections in this and arrange in a heavily greased bundt pan. I paused half-way through and poured some of the liquid mixture over it, then layered the rest of the biscuits on top. Pour remaining cin-sugar mix on top and the rest of the liquid mixture.
Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.
I should warn you, place your pan on top of a cookie-sheet or something because sometimes it spills over and this will prevent a gooey mess in the bottom of your oven.
You have to flip IMMEDIATELY so please be careful when doing it, dont get burnt. Flip onto a large plate, be careful the liquid caramel will be all over the place so do this over your sink. It'll look majestic when served, dust some powdered sugar on top for presentation. If you have kids this is a fun thing to do with them, I think I'll do this with my goddaughters when they come over next time.
This is also a GREAT breakup food, ngl.
And now gif love for those of you who also love watching Vinny/Snooki on JS.
