We make monkey bread quite often. Its something the kids really enjoy, as well as us adults. I find that its very easy to make, though I never use exact amounts of ingredients, why? Because you really don't have to. It all works itself together. I use a couple cans of regular, plain, flavorless biscuits and cut them into 4 pieces each. Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, put a big ole glob of butter (baseball sized), brown sugar (a cup or so, more or less to your liking) melt and mix together... Read more ..read more

I am guessing that a bread expert would suggest that it should have more chew but it's fine for me. Below is the recipe that I use.
