Gorilla Bread
Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
4 ounces cream cheese
2 12 ounce cans refrigerated biscuits, 10 count
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a bundt pan with no stick cooking spray. Mix the sugar and cinnamon and set aside. In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over low heat, stirring well to mix and set aside. Cu the cream cheese into 20 small cubes, 4 rows of 5, and set aside. Press the biscuits out with your fingers and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar mixture. Place a cube of cream cheese in the center of each biscuit, and then wrap and seal the dough around the cream cheese. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the nuts into the bottom of the bundt pan. Place half of the prepared biscuits in the pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the remaining sugar mixture and pour 1/2 of the melted butter over the biscuits. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the pecans. Layer the remaining biscuits and sprinkle with the remaining sugar mixture. Drizzle the remaining butter over the biscuits and then sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the pecans. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes. Place a plate on top of the bundt pan and invert to unmold. Makes 10 servings.
