Disappointed! The first time I made this I used the Grands Biscuits and the entire bottom of the pan did NOT cook! It was a gooey soggy mess! The top was nicely browned so I was able to salvage that but had to throw the rest away! The next time I used only 3 cans of the regular buttermilk biscuits and it came out much better. Expensive lesson!!!

I tried this today for the 1st time with only a few variations. I did use the 4 cans & cut ea biscuit in 4 pieces. I did however use 2/3 C of grated Parmesan & added 3/4 tsp EACH: Salt, Fresh Ground Black Pepper, Oregano, Italian Seasoning, Garlic Powder & mixed this in a Gallon size ZipLoc bag. I put the dough pieces in the bag 1 can @ a time so they would evenly coat & have less of a chance to stick together. I gently melted 1 stick of butter with 1/4 Olive Oil & poured this over the bread mixture in a tube pan. (This ran out the bottom, so you need a pan or something underneath to catch thi

I enjoy taking something new to the parties I attend. This Monkey Bread recipe sounded delicious. It was pretty but I wouldn't make it again. The heavy rolls/biscuts overtook any garlic and cheese flavors. It may be better to serve with some kind of sauce or melted butter as it is very heavy and dry.

I've made this super simple bread several times since first seeing this recipe and it gets rave reviews from everyone who has tried it. My only alteration is I add a couple tablespoons of poppy seeds to the recipe. One warning, be sure to use shredded paremesan, not grated (did that once) because it makes a HUGE difference in the taste using shredded vs grated.

YUM! I madde these for supper tonight with Pensey Northwoods seasoned Talapia fish & fries. Using 1 can of GRANDS in a 9x13 lightly buttered pan...also 2 TBSP. garlic powdered, i mixed in with the 1/2 tsp. salt, dash pepper to the 1/2 cup of Parmesan Cheese and 2 cup package of shredded cheese. The cubed Grands did not stick to the shredded cheese, so i had to just grab a pile of shredded cheese with every cube and lay in a single layer. Worked fine.....baked for 30 minutes or until browned, they were DELIC! Left-overs tomorrow night with lasagna! One package is way to much for 2 people....

I made these today to go with sphaghetti. Hubby said it needed a little more garlic. So next time I will add garlic powder to the bag. Also I only used 1 and a half can of bisquits not 4. Will also use a little more butter. Overall though it was good.
