Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Cinnamon
  • 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
  • 0.5 cups Brown sugar
  • 0.5 cups Mini chocolate chips
  • 16 pieces Soft caramel squares
  • 1 can Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.

Step 3

Open the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters. Roll each piece into a ball.

Step 4

Flatten a dough ball slightly and place a mini chocolate chip or caramel square in the center. Fold the dough around the filling and roll it into a sealed ball. Repeat for all dough pieces.

Step 5

Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated. Arrange the coated balls in the prepared bundt pan, layering them as needed.

Step 6

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved and a smooth sauce forms.

Step 7

Pour the butter-brown sugar mixture evenly over the dough balls in the bundt pan.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and puffed up.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Then, carefully invert the pan onto a serving plate.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Monkey and Gorilla Bread as a pull-apart dessert or snack.
