I promised my daughter Tyler months ago that I'd make her this bread. I kept forgetting about it and when she would remind me, there was always one ingredient I didn't have on hand. She had a school dance to go to Friday night and was having a friend sleep over afterward. I decided that this would be the perfect opportunity to make this. It turned out that I didn't have an ounce of brown sugar in the house and didn't feel like running to the store, so I made my own. I just combined white sugar with some molasses and by golly it worked! Well Holly, everyone loved this gooey, warm and delicious morning treat. Thanks so much!

Excellent! I 1/2ed the recipe because I would rather bake fresh than have leftovers. I rolled each frozen roll in the butter before placing in tube pan. Since there was only a single layer when the recipe is 1/2ed, you just put the buttered rolls in a layer and then put the pudding/brown sugar mixture on, next the cinnamon & sugar mixture, nuts if you are doing that, and then pour the melted butter over top. After dipping each roll, I didn't have any leftover butter so I melted an additional Tbsp. and dotted the top with it. 1/2 recipe still bakes for the 30 minutes. ENJOY! This recipe is definitely a keeper!

I am only giving this recipe 4 stars due to the fact that I too did not like the clumps of brown sugar/butter. I prefer a more gooey bread and have had it that way in the past. Every time I have tried to make Monkey Bread I have not had much success, but this was closer than any other I have tried. I didn't have time to read all the reviews before I made the recipe, but I too agree that cutting the rolls into 4 pieces and dipping them in butter would work out better than pouring the butter over the mixture in between layers. I even double the amount of butter because I thought the mixture looked dry before I baked it and it still turned out clumpy and crunchy. I think there is too much of the brown sugar/butterscotch mixture also. But I can't wait to try the recipe again, as it did have an excellent flavor and will get better each time.

The bread is good but would have preferred a more "sticky bun" like product. The pudding and sugar mixture turned out more like a filling, nothing like a caramel glaze. I am going to try using more butter the next time.

This was soo delicious!! It was very simple to make. Frozen bread dough works so much better than the refrigerated biscuts and not as time consuming as the yeast rolls!! I will have this in my recipe box for a long time!! Kerri- IA

Wow..this stuff is just like Cinnabon.. it is great. Be sure to use the correct BIG pan or you will have a mess. It makes a huge amount so maybe cutting it in half so you dont have a bunch left over and can make fresh each morning would be good. IT is A MUST. Sweet, sticky and a real comfort food.

I have made this every Christmas and New Year's eve for more years than I care to admit! It has always been a favorite of the family to have these hot dribbling rolls on Christmas morning and open our "Santa" presents. I use 1 pkg. Bridgford frozen rolls, 3/4 white sugar, (but will try brown sugar next time), 2 TABLESPOONS Cinnamon. I also use COOK NOT instant butterscotch pudding and pecans instead of walnuts. They are easy and truly delicious!

I must have goofed! I was so excited to try this recipe and the dough was very dry. Next time I may try using the biscuits in the tube not the frozen kind.

Not sure how to rate this. My kids liked it. I didn't care for the chunks of hard, buttery sugar. I have a similiar recipe which calls for the pudding mix and brown sugar to be dissolved in the melted butter, along with 2 tablespoons of milk. If I make it again, I will also cut each roll in half, as they grow quite large overnight.

It's not every day your boyfriend comes home and makes it a POINT to tell you how good something was. This recipe is SOO good! He loves anything warm, gooey and sweet, and this is all that and more. Microwaving the leftovers makes it warm and gooey all over again. This could be sold at Cinnabon!!! I also did not use all the brown sugar/butterscotch mix. THANKS!!!!

Quick and wonderful! I made my own dough so before I froze them I also cut them up into 36 pieces vs. the 18. Instead of dipping the rolls in melted butter I just added some small dabs of butter all over the sugar mixtures in each layer to help aid in the brown sugar melting instead of staying clumpy after baked. Excellent recipe. Easy and Delicious, everyone loves it!

I made this recipe for a baby shower brunch and it turned out great. I did take the earlier advice and dip the frozen rolls in butter before putting in the baking pan. I will be making this recipe for years to come!

This monkey bread is incredible. People always rave about it. I have been asked for the recipe by just about everyone who has tried it. I made it for an Easter brunch and the entire thing was devoured in no time (and there was a lot of food from which to choose!). The added bonus is that it is so easy to make!

Excellent. Like a previous reviewer, I didn't think it was going to work because the mixture looks so dry but I'm a believer now! I found this to be very gooey and delicious. I cut each roll into 4 pieces with kitchen shears which allowed more edges to be coated with the mixture. I will definitely make again.

I have tried this twice now because of the good reviews and still have not had success. Because you let the mixture sit overnight, I end up with bread that has clumps of sugar/brownsugar/butter, rather than a nice even loaf.
