Monkey Bread from a Monkey 

Last recipe entry from me from the Hopkins County 4-H Food Show. Isn't it pretty?  It's hard to believe a little monkey, ur I mean, a little kid made this monkey bread.

I sure hope they (the AgriLIFE Extension office) ask me to judge again next time.  It was SO MUCH FUN meeting the kids, listening to them spout their nutrition education, while proudly standing behind their prepared dishes.  Those kids were down right cool!

HERE'S MONKEY BREAD from a CLOVER KID

• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 3 cans refrigerator biscuits (10 biscuits each)
• 1 stick butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• cooking spray

Heat oven to 325ºF.

Mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a plastic storage bag or paper sack.  Remove biscuits from the tubes. Place each biscuit on cutting board and cut each into fourths with a butter knife.

Place about half the biscuit pieces into the cinnamon sugar mix and shake bag, until thoroughly coated.

With an adult helper, heat butter and brown sugar in a small pan over low heat, stir until mixed together.

Spray a bundt pan with cooking spray, be sure to coat it very well.  Place the coated biscuit pieces evenly in the bundt pan.  Finish coating the remaining pieces, then add them to the bundt pan.

Pour brown sugar mixture over the biscuits.  BAKE in oven 35 minutes.

Have the adult helper remove the bundt pan and place on wire rack to cool for 10 minutes.  CAREFULLY turn the pan upside down onto serving plate, the sugary coating will still be hot.  The monkey bread should fall right out.  Allow to cool at least 5 minutes or more, before serving.

To eat, just pinch off pieces and Enjoy!
