Monkey Bread

1 stick butter (2 T divided out)
2 T water
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. chopped pecans
2 cans regular biscuits (10/can) - I use Pillsbury Flaky Biscuits

Preheat oven to 375. Place 2 T melted butter in bundt pan and coat bottom and sides. Sprinkle 3 T of pecans into bottom of pan. In a sauce pan, combine the rest of the butter, water, and brown sugar. Cook until boiling and remove from heat. (You can continue to cook for about 2 minutes after it starts boiling if you like thicker sauce. This is what I usually do.) Break biscuits in half and roll each half into a ball shape. Place biscuit halves from one can into bundt pan. Pour 1/2 of syrup over biscuits. Sprinkle 1/2 of nuts on top of that. Repeat with remaining biscuits, syrup, and nuts. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Turn onto a serving dish immediately. Serve hot! :) YUM!!

This is a quick, easy and quite tasty breakfast treat that I make when my family comes into town. It serves about 6 people....or 4 depending on how hungry you are!! - Kristina
