Monkey Bread - Frozen dough
Ingredients
-
24 ounces frozen dinner roll
dough (e.g. Bridgeford Parkerhouse style rolls)
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 (3.4 ounce) package
cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding mix - or (if you can't find butterscotch pudding) - 1/2 pkg vanilla
cook-and-serve pudding mix and approx. 1/4 cup butterscotch ice cream
topping
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
or pecans
- 1/2 cup melted butter
Directions
1. Put this recipe together the night before, or at
least six hours before serving.
2. Melt butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon together
in sauce pan or microwave bowl. Add
butterscotch pudding mix (or vanilla pudding mix plus butterscotch ice cream
topping). Mix thoroughly and allow to
cool.
3. Grease a 9 or 10 inch tube pan or bundt pan. (Do
NOT use a pan with removable base, the carmel topping will leak through.) In bottom of tube/bundt pan, sprinkle some brown
sugar and some chopped walnuts/pecans.
4. Allow frozen dinner rolls to thaw JUST ENOUGH to
cut in half with kitchen shears (only takes about 5 minutes). Place half the frozen dinner roll halves in
pan. Drizzle half the
butter/sugar/pudding sauce over the first layer and then sprinkle the nuts. Repeat with second layer.
5. Place on counter over night. Do not cover. Next
morning bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for approx 40
minutes. Cover with tinfoil if top
browns too fast. Let stand a few minutes
and turn pan over onto serving platter. If excess caramel sauce drips onto serving
platter, scoop up immediately with spoon and pour over top of monkey bread.
The second Epic Experience was for my sweet son, Isaiah. He had a chance to go and see a Laker's Game at the Staple Center -- LIVE. The Lakers were playing Oklahoma. They gave out free posters and a cheering towel. He got some of the most famous players from the Oklahoma team to sign his poster and towel. The seats were totally awesome as was the experience. And most miraculous of all, the tickets were a gift from a friend of my wonderful sister and brother in law, Dr. Noguchi. They were like 160US$ tickets for FREE and he gave us TWO tickets!!!! And the Lakers WON (ending a 7 game losing streak)!!!!!!!!!!
