Just made this a few minutes ago for unexpected company coming. I cheated and grabbed a ball, which I shouldn't have done, because now I want to eat the whole thing! This is absolutely sinful!

It is crazy that so few ingredients can result in such a delicious end product. It was family approved and had us hooked from the first nibble. The ooey gooey nutty coating on the monkey bread pieces is nothing short of fantabulous!!!

First Christmas party of the year and I chose this to bring. Once one person tasted it there was a domino affect around the room gravitating right to this extra special dessert! So super yummy!

I made this to bring to a friends and we all thought it was AH Maaa Zingggg! This is so good that it's hard to see the last crumb gone, and it was, in no time. Easy directions and simple ingredients. This will be made again and again and I can't wait to make it for Christmas morning at my folks!!

This is one of those things that you will have once and know that you can't wait to make it again to share with everybody! I made it recently when I had friends staying for the weekend and it was fabulous! Everyone loved it and asked me for the recipe. Paula really knew what she was doing when she created this for us!
