Grands! Monkey Bread

I got this recipe from the Pillsbury web site. It is free and a wonderful source for recipes and videos. They also have a wonderful community section as well. This is also my next sweet recipe that I am making.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of granulated sugar

1 tsp. of cinnamon

2 cans (16.3 ounces each) Pillsbury Grand's Home style refrigerated buttermilk biscuits.

1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (if desired)

1/2 cup raisins, if desired

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

3/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 12-cup fluted tube pan with shorting or cooking spray. In large storage plastic food bag, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon.

Separate dough into 16 biscuits, cut each into quarters. Shake in bag to coat. Arrange in pan, adding walnuts and raisins among the biscuit pieces.

In small bowl mix brown sugar and butter; pour over biscuit pieces.

Bake 28-32 minutes or until golden brown and no longer doughy in center. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Turn upside down onto serving plate; pull apart to serve. Serve warm.
