Monkey Bread

This is a family favorite that one of the boys brought home from pre school many years ago. I'm sure the reason it is a favorite is all the butter and sugar. We don't have it too often, but it still gets requested sometimes.

Serves 4 - 5
2 pkgs. refrigerator biscuit dough
2 Tbs butter (melted)
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 Tbs. granulated sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Mix cinnamon and sugar together and put in a shaker. (like a salt shaker) I just keep one filled with cinnamon and sugar in the cupboard. Open biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into fourths. I do this by laying them in a row on a cutting board and using a pizza cutter to cut them. If you have a child helping you, this is their favorite part. Place half of the biscuit dough in a 9 X 9 baking dish or casserole dish. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture over the dough. Add the rest of the dough and sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
Sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar

Stir the brown sugar into the melted butter and sprinkle this on top of the dough.
Brown sugar added

Bake at 375 for 15 - 18 min.
Remove from oven and turn pan upside down on plate. Serve.
Out of the oven

Ready to serve
