Very easy and delicious! I made this without the walnuts. My family was licking their fingers. I will be making this for every family function.

Easy recipe to make with your kids. Taste delicious too. A couple of suggestions I've found that help. Cut each biscuit in 8ths. Just cut the biscuit in half and than each half into four pieces each. It will cook more evenly for you. Also I would suggest that you boil the brown sugar, butter mixture. I also add any leftover sugar cinnamon from coating the dough into the brown sugar mixture. Bring sauce to a low rolling boil for one minute, that way the mixture won't be gritty. I always use a bundt pan and it is done perfect in 35 minutes. Very good & everybody loves it!

I just made this for the first time and it turned out WONDERFUL!!! I read alot of reviews while it was cooking.Anyway, I followed the recipe exactly and used real butter...used a heavy bundt pan..when putting the biscuit dough in the pan, I put about half...then half the butter/brown sugar mixture..continued filling the rest of the pan with the remaining biscuit dough and poured (spooned) the rest of the butter/brown sugar on top.ONLY thing I did different was cook it 45 mins..top, bottom & middle turned out great. Not doughy..not overcooked.Will make often for home and get togethers.

my in laws first made this on one of our visits to their house. they call it monkey brains i was a little turned off by the name but once i smelled it fresh baked and realizes their not crazy and dont eat brains lol i loved it. we added the tradition in our household that we will now make it every christmas morning and when ever we feel like having monkey BREAD. this is the best thing ever. we use half the white sugar and double the cinnamon shake the dough pieces in a zip lock then sprinkle remaining mixture over the dough before pouring on the melted butter and brown sugar.

I made this today, but just made half of the recipe. I baked it in a glass loaf pan and it was out of this world delicious!!! I am amazed that there is still some left over! Plan on making this on a more regular basis.

I made this for our SuperBowl Party BEAT UP SF at work. It was a SMASH. Followed the recipe as written. No need to cook longer or break it apart place in any other pan. It turned out just right. No leftovers. I did add Walnuts&Pecans. DELICIOUS!!! GO RAVENS 2/3/2013

Made this for the first time with my girls and it was a HIT! Thank you for the previous reviews about being doughy! I took that into consideration and placed mine in a rectangler narrow ceramic baking dish (a little longer then a loaf pan) and baked for 30 minutes. It came out perfect! If you only have loaf/bread pans, try splitting into two pans, bake according to directions then stacking them on a plate before pouring over the bread and sugar mixture. YUMMY!
