Monkey Bread

Ingredients:
canned biscuits
butter or margarine
sugar or brown sugar (preferably brown)
cinnamon

Directions:
Cut or tear the biscuits into 2-4 pieces. Layer all ingredients, in order, in a meatloaf pan or bundt pan (
for more than 2 cans use a shallow baking pan so that the middle will get cooked). Press into pan slightly (you don't want to mash all the pieces together but you don't want it too loose). Bake for 10-20 minutes at 400-425 degrees (time and temperature are approximate, check periodically and be sure the center gets done). Other ingredients to try: chopped nuts, honey, maple syrup. Or, for a non-sweet bread, use flavored butter such as garlic butter and leave out the sugar, cinnamon, etc.
