Monkey Bread

Monkey Bread is a perfect treat for either breakfast, dessert, brunch or afternoon tea.  While my parents were visiting last week my mom and I baked some.  Then the three of us sat down and broke bread together, sharing the sweet snack.  We ate it while still warm and it tasted so delicious.  The Monkey Bread reminded me of a giant caramel roll.  It was pretty simple to make, you just take four rolls of biscuits in the can- the recipe is even on it- and cut each biscuit into four pieces.  Then take a bag with your sugar mixture and coat each piece and put into shortcake pan or bundt pan.  After that pour melted butter and brown sugar over the top.  The result is this warm and gooey bread you pull apart that's covered in a caramel sauce.  So good.
