This monkey business all started with a birthday party! My first problem, “What do you get for a good friend’s birthday who happens to be a man?” You gift him with a sweet treat of course. Monkey Bread it is and I can not take any credit for the recipe because it’s from The Pioneer Woman.
Pillsbury now sells their biscuits in a four pack in order to promote their own version of Monkey Bread. I tried it their recipe but honestly I like Rea’s recipe better. Her list of ingredients requires three cans of biscuits not four.
Next problem, “How do I keep my little people out of that Monkey Bread?” As a seasoned professional mom of many I knew they would be asking him every five minutes if they could have some. My kids love this dessert and are willing to do what they can to get a piece.
What can you do with that extra can of biscuits? Monkey Muffins of course, which solves two problems. These didn’t last more than 10 minutes. The kids went crazy for these treats. They didn’t bother the guest of honor one bit! Whoo Hoo score one for Mom!
Have you tried these sweet treats before?
