This is definitely not for monkey consumption. I made 1/2 recipe so mine wasn't as high as it should be (I only used one can of biscuits), but the taste is over the top. I really like regular monkey bread or gorilla bread (with cream cheese), but this one, with the addition of chocolate, is my all-time favorite.
Ingredients: 1 cup packed brown sugar, 3/4 cup butter, cubed, 2 cans (16.3 ounces each)large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, 64 milk chocolate kisses (I used the dark), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (or bundt pan); set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes or until sugar is melted; set aside.
Cut each biscuit into quarters. Shape each piece around a chocolate kiss (unwrapped); pinch seams to seal. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Add biscuits, a few at a time, and shake to coat.
Spoon 1/4 cup caramel (brown sugar/butter mixture) into prepared pan. Arrange a third of the biscuits in pan and drizzle with 1/4 cup more caramel. Repeat layers twice.
Bake, uncovered, in preheated 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Cover loosely with foil if biscuits brown too quickly. Immediately invert onto a serving plate. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
