Monkey Bread

Monkey bread yum! My boys enjoy this for breakfast or just to snack on. It isn't hard to make so it has my vote. My mom has made this before but I got this recipe from Pioneer Woman.

What you will need:

• 3 - cans of biscuits (I used the store brand)
• 1 cup sugar
• 2-3 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 sticks butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• A bundt pan - mine is pampered chef
• You will also need 1-gallon size ziplock bag

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Open canned biscuits - we tried to get a picture as the can popped but no luck, o well!

Place biscuits on cutting board and cut into fourths.

Mix cinnamon and regular sugar in a gallon size zip lock bag.

Shake, shake, shake, to mix the two together.

Add the biscuits.

All of them

Don't they look good? They smell good too! Place these in the bundt pan.

Melt butter

Add brown sugar, melt and pour over biscuits

That's it, now place in 350 degree oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes.

Ok now a word of warning, let this cool before you put it on a plate. Now after this has cooled then place a plate on top and do the flip. Wa La!

Pour yourself a nice glass of milk or cup of coffee and enjoy. Quick before everyone realizes they are ready.

Here is what was left after my two boys got finished with round one.

WARNING!!! This post is addicting

CHRISTMAS CRACK

I found this recipe over at Dee's blog SeptembertheMarch - link is at the bottom of this post. i changed the recipe around for the flavors my family likes but stayed close to what she used. Here is a picture of the finished product and a list of the ingredients I used. Easy and delicious! Enjoy!!!!!

Popcorn - my husband is addicted to popcorn and literally eats it every night so I gave him the job of popping several batches. (Dee used store bought - whatever is best for you)

I used one package Almond Bark melted in the microwave following the directions on the package.

While I was waiting on the Almond Bark to melt I added the ingredients together. I used a turkey bag because it is what I had on hand, you will need something large. So I added half the popcorn, 3/4 box of corn chex - again this is something I had on hand and needed to use before the date went out.

I did use about four cups or more of peanuts because my family likes peanuts. You could leave this out or use your families favorite nut.

About 2-3 cups of crasins

Broken pretzel sticks

I really just eyeballed the ingredients until it looked like I wanted it. I started by adding some of the Almond Bark and coating all the ingredients I then added more popcorn and more of the other ingredients and the rest of the Almond Bark. I rolled it around in the bag until I thought everything was coated and then spread it out on parchment paper. After I spread it out into a semi-thin layer I added Toll House dark chocolate and mint chips. I didn't add these in the bag because I didn't want them to melt.


I then melted some red Wilton candy melts and drizzled over the top. I let this dry before sampling (sure we did). I used red because I had the green mint chips and this made it Christmasie (that's a word isn't it)


Please visit Dee at September the March
She has a video that you can watch. We have loved this and are making plans to make more using different ingredients. My son wants to try it with peanut butter chips. This will make great gifts, wrapped in a pretty package. I will take a pic when I get these ready, that is if they make it to the package stage.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will try this.
