Steps:
- To make King Cake Monkey Bread, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees and spraying the inside of a bundt pan with non-stick spray.
- Next, remove the biscuits from their tubes and cut each biscuit in half and then in half again so you have four pieces from each biscuit. In a small bowl combine brown sugar, pecans, vanilla extract, pecan pieces and a dash of salt. In a separate bowl, add the melted butter. Start by taking one piece of biscuit, dipping it in the melted butter and then rolling it through the brown sugar mixture. Lay in the bottom of the bundt pan and repeat until you have used up all of your biscuits. About half way through placing your biscuit pieces, add the plastic baby in your monkey bread and keep placing the biscuits around it.
- Once you have used up your biscuits, bake for 40 - 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit for 15 minutes before running a butter knife around the outside of the monkey bread. Place a plate upside down on the top (bottom) of the bundt pan and firmly holding both, flip both the plate and the pan upside down so that your top is now your bottom. Give the pan a little shimmy and your King Cake Monkey Bread should slide right out. Let cool completely.
- Once cool, add sifted powdered sugar, milk and vanilla to a medium sized bowl and using an electric mixer, beat until well combined. Drizzle the glaze over your monkey bread and decorate with yellow, green and purple sprinkles or sanding sugar. Serve immediately. Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast and white sugar in warm milk. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
- Stir the egg yolks and melted butter into the milk mixture. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, nutmeg and lemon zest. Beat the flour mixture into the milk/egg mixture 1 cup at a time. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Mix well. In another small bowl, combine the remaining 2 cups confectioners' sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons milk. Mix well and set aside.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll the dough out into a 6x30 inch rectangle. Spread the cream cheese filling across the center of the dough. Bring the two long edges together and seal completely. Using your hands shape the dough into a long cylinder and place on a greased baking sheet, seam-side down. Shape the dough into a ring press the baby into the ring from the bottom so that it is completely hidden by the dough. Place a well-greased 2 pound metal coffee can the center of the ring to maintain the shape during baking. Cover the ring with a towel and place in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the coffee can and allow the bread to cool. Drizzle cooled cake with lemon/sugar glaze and decorate with candy sprinkles.
