    This was super yummy! The brown sugar/butter mixture once baked was just like caramel!! As on person suggested I poured in some of the "sauce" mid way through layering. Another option would be to dip the biscuit pieces in butter then rolling in sugar just so add more moisture to the middle while baking. Thanks for posting!!

    This was so yummy! I used 4 cans instead of 3 and real butter. The only thing I would have changed was to add the brown sugar mixture halfway through the layering process and then added the remaining amount at the end. It was a little dry on the bottom/middle, but still tasted very good and was soooo easy!

    We absolutely loved this. I took the rest of it after my Dh and I had a late night snack, to my sister's house and came back with an empty plate. All the kids loved it. We heated bits for just a few seconds in the microwave and it tasted like we had just baked it. I used 2 packages of Grands Biscuits and cut each biscuits into 6 pieces. I also put the pecans in the pan before anything else. I was thinking about putting half the biscuits in the pan then half the butter mixture and repeating, because it was a bit dry in some spots in the middle. Thanks so much carolinafan for a recipe we will be using whenever we get the urge for something cinnamonny.

    I make Monkey Bread all of the time and always try new recipes for it since there are so many to choose from. I have to say that so far, this is my favorite! It is so oooey and gooey! The only thing that I didn't add was the pecans, just because we aren't a big nut family. Great recipe carolinafan. Thanks for sharing! I'll be making this one again
