Happy New Year's Eve, Eve and Monkey Bread

Monkey Bread recipe from Sunday's post

Ingredients:

4 cans (10 to a can) biscuits.  I used grocery store brand butter me not (flakes of butter in biscuits)

1 tablespoon of cinnamon*

2 teaspoons of ground cloves*

1 teaspoon of nutmeg*

3/4 cup brown sugar*

(optional: raisins and pecans  to taste but I've never added them)

Preheat oven to 325, bake for 45 minutes

Supplies needed:

You will need either a bundt pan (fluted sides) or a pound cake pan.  

Large zip lock bag

Sauce ingredients

1 to 1 1/4 stick butter (1 is plenty)

1 cup brown sugar

Directions:

spray pan with PAM

Mix all of the spices*  then pour into a large zip lock bag.

Quarter biscuits, add to zip lock bag one can at a time, shake well, take them out and spread around pan evenly.  Repeat until all 4 cans are in the pan.

After all the biscuits are in the pan, prepare sauce as follows:

In a small sauce pan, cut up the stick of butter add brown sugar.  Simmer on low until melted. pour over biscuits  Bake at 325 for 45 minutes

HINTS:

Over the years I have learned I can prepare the biscuit and spice mix the night before.

Cover tightly with foil store in fridge.  The next day all you have to do is prepare the sauce.

GREAT FOR BREAKFAST.

Years ago we were told the name came from the fact that it is served by just pulling off pieces like a Monkey would do.  But it is too hot and too messy we serve with a large spoon.
