gurzillo

Me and my husband were watching Jon & Kate Plus 8 reruns last night before Lost and the episode where they made Monkey Munch came on.  Me and Eric both looked at each other and knew that we had to make them asap.  It is the best when he wants the same things as me because then i came make alot of it!!!!

Oh my, you just reminded me of Monkey Bread-- ripped up pillsbury biscuits doused in cinnamon sugar and molded into a bundt pan with buttery goodness-- I might just have to make this in the next day or so...
