Mini Caramel Pull-Aparts (Monkey Bread)

A friend of ours just gave birth this past Friday and so I made these fun treats to drop off at her apartment. They were so so yummy, easy to make and I am embarrassed to say I probably ate half the pan! Let's just omit that last part.

Caramel Pull-Aparts

1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 cans (7.5 oz each) Pillsbury refrigerated biscuits*
 
Grease or spray 12 regular-size muffin cups. Mix butter and brown sugar; spoon 1 tablespoon mixture into each muffin cup. Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in 1-gallon bag. Separate dough into 20 biscuits; cut each in 6 pieces.* Shake pieces in bag to coat. Place 10 pieces in each muffin cup. Bake at 350°F for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 1 minute; turn upside down. Serve warm. 
 
 
 
*I used one large (16 oz?) can of Grands biscuits. They worked just fine. There were 8 biscuits in the package. I cut each one in 6ths. (Half, then made three pieces of each half). I put 4 biscuit bits into each muffin cup.

I just made this last week! It works great in a bundt pan, as well, if you were bringing it to an event or something. :)

That's probably one of my favorite breakfast treats!! My roommates and I would make it for conference and between 4 of us, eat the WHOLE pan! Delicious!!
