Monkey Bread with Peeps

It's been awhile since I brought monkey bread into my office. I try to do it before a long weekend but I've been slacking. I didn't do it for MLK Day weekend nor for Presidents Day weekend.

But then inspiration popped into my head. Or should I say peeped into my head?

"Can I incorporate Peeps into monkey bread?"

 

After some research, I decided that yes, yes I could! 

I decided to melt some electric pink Peep bunnies with some butter to make a topping to put on the baked monkey bread.

These cute little bunnies with somewhat scary eyes were about to enjoy a butter jacuzzi and become...

A molten lava of pink goo.

Cool, right?

 

The marshmallowy topping poured nicely over the top of the baked and inverted monkey bread. It added a slight taste of Peeps to the bread, but over all just created more sugar to eat. Perfect!

Have a happy Easter!

Monkey Bread (aka Pull Apart Rolls) with Peeps (adapted from Mom's Best Recipes cookbook)

2 cans of biscuits (I prefer the extra buttery and fluffy ones)

1 C sugar

2 t cinnamon

1 1/2 sticks butter

1 C brown sugar

1 t cinnamon

1 package of Peeps

3 T butter

Generously grease tube pan with Crisco. In paper bag, put sugar and 2 t cinnamon. Using 1 can at a time, cut biscuits into quarters. Place in paper bag and shake to coat. Place evenly in tube pan.

(Second Part)

Boil together butter, brown sugar, and 1 t cinnamon. Pour mixture over biscuits. Bake 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before inverting.

 

While it's cooling, melt 8 Peeps with 3 Tablespoons of butter. Stir until completely melted.

 

Invert bread and pour Peep mixture on top.

 

Let guests pull apart.

Bake well and prosper!
