  1. This is dangerous! It's addicting and so good. It's also one of the easiest desserts out there. I think the hardest part is waiting for it to bake. I highly recommend it!
     
  2. Made this for the first time today and it was a huge hit. My only modification: I added 1/2 cup of chopped pecans (by sprinkling them into the dough and mixing them into the butter/sugar mixture). Very easy, very tasty.
     
  3. Made 1/2 recipe with 1 can of rolls. Super easy and VERY tasty ! DH says this is a keeper -- great for breakfast ! Would not change a thing ! Thanks for posting !
     
  4. We used one roll of wal mart brand cinnamon rolls quartered, melted 1/4 cup butter mixed with 1/2 cup brown sugar and poured over cinnamon rolls in a regular sized loaf pan. Baked at 350 for about 18 minutes, let cool for a few minutes then inverted onto a dish. Once cooled, we drizzled the icing that came with the cinnamon rolls over the top of the “loaf”. Turned out really good!! We are going to try 2 rolls of the cinnamon rolls next time
     
  5. I decided to cut the recipe in half for the four of us. I used a 9x5 loaf pan. I made a parchment sling to ensure easy removal and easier cleanup. It took about 35 minutes to bake. I wish I had used an 8x4 pan instead because the quartered cinnamon rolls only made a layer and a half in the larger pan. A taller monkey bread would have been more impressive to look at. However, the butter (I used salted btw) and all that sugar really stepped up the yumminess of canned cinnamon rolls.
