MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Open up all three cans of biscuits and cut each biscuit into quarters.
• Next, combine the white sugar with 2-3 teaspoons of cinnamon. (3 teaspoons of cinnamon gives it a fairly strong cinnamon flavor. If you're not so hot on cinnamon, cut it back to 2 teaspoons.) Dump these into a 1 gallon zip bag and shake to mix evenly.
• Drop all of the biscuit quarters into the cinnamon-sugar mix. Once all the biscuit quarters are in the bag seal it and give it a vigorous shake. This will get all those pieces unstuck from one another and nicely coated with cinnamon-sugar. Spread these nuggets out evenly in the bundt pan.
• At this point, you're going to want to melt the two sticks of butter together with ½ cup of brown sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. This can be light or dark brown sugar. Cook butter/sugar mixture, stirring for a few minutes until the two become one. Once the brown sugar butter has become one color, you can pour it over the biscuits.
• Bake for about 30-40 minutes until the crust is a deep dark brown on top. When it's finished cooking, remove it from the oven. If you have the willpower, allow it to cool for about 15-30 minutes before turning it over onto a plate.

MONKEY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a plastic bag combine, 1 cup of sugar and 1 tbsp of cinnamon.
• Cut each biscuit into pieces and put into the bag and coat them with the cinnamon mixture.
• Place in an ungreased bundt pan.
• In a small saucepan, bring to boil, 3/4 cup of butter, 1 cup of sugar, 2 tbsp of white karo syrup and 2 tbsp of cinnamon, stir constantly.
• Pour over biscuits.
• Bake for 35 - 40 minutes.
• Remove from pan immediately, be careful of the cinnamon oozing all over the place. But that is the best part of the cake!
