GINA LEAH’S MONKEY BREAD
Ingredients:
2 cans of refrigerated biscuits
1.5 sticks of butter
2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
Directions:
Tear the biscuits into small pieces (about the size of a golf ball)
Melt butter and mix with 1 cup white sugar and the brown sugar
Pour 1/4 of this mixture into a bundt pan
Put remaining white sugar in zip lock bag, toss biscuits in sugar
Lightly layer the biscuits into the pan
Pour remaining butter/sugar mixture over biscuits
Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes
CAUTION! As you can tell from the ingredients, this is a high
sugar confection. If you make this, be sure to SHARE IT WITH
FRIENDS. It’s highly addictive. If you make it while you’re all alone you WILL be
compelled to eat the entire thing—with perhaps disastrous results...
