• Bake for about 30 minutes. Remove from the pan when it's still hot to avoid
• Butter and flour a bundt pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon. Separate biscuits and flatten each slightly with your hand. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon and sugar mixture onto each biscuit. Place one cube of cream cheese in center of biscuit and fold in half to resemble a half moon. Melt the 1 stick of butter in a saucepan and add brown sugar and bring to a boil; remove from the heat. Place 1/2 cup nuts on the bottom of the bundt pan and then line the pan with a row of cream cheese filled biscuits. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Drizzle half of the butter mixture on top and then repeat steps, beginning with nuts.
• Bake for about 30 minutes. Remove from the pan when it's still hot to avoid sticking.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, pickles and mustard in a medium bowl. Season with salt and set aside.
• Arrange the bacon in a large skillet and heat over medium. Cook until golden and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate; pour the drippings out of the skillet and reserve for another use. Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces.
• Heat the oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. When it starts to shimmer, add the ground beef, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned in spots and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring constantly, until just translucent and tender, about 2 minutes. Use a large slotted spoon to scoop the meat mixture into a medium bowl, leaving the liquid behind. Stir in 1 cup of the ketchup sauce. Let cool slightly. Fold in the chopped American cheese.
• Put the sesame seeds in a shallow bowl.
• Separate each biscuit into 2 thinner rounds (the dough is layered, so it will divide easily). Flatten a piece of dough between your hands. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the ground beef mixture into the center of the dough and top with a piece of bacon. Gather the dough around the filling and seal into a little ball. Dip the smooth bottom of the ball into the sesame seeds. Place the ball into the prepared bundt pan, seed-side down, and repeat until the bottom of the pan is covered. Split the remaining biscuits and stuff with the bacon and filling using the same method -- but don't dip in the sesame seeds. Add to the bundt pan in an even layer.
• Bake the monkey bread until golden brown and the balls are no longer doughy, 50 to 55 minutes. Invert onto a platter and remove the pan. Let rest for 10 minutes. Serve warm with the remaining ketchup sauce for dipping.

• Place the Monkey on the Gorilla's back and enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the dough the day before you want to make the monkey bread: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine the flour, Parmesan, sugar, garlic powder, yeast and salt on low speed to combine, 15 to 20 seconds.
• Add the butter, mashed potato, water, egg and egg yolk. Mix on low speed for 4 minutes, then on medium speed until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise at room temperature for 1 hour, then punch the dough down and refrigerate overnight.
• When you're ready to make the bread, let the dough sit at room temperature for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Generously coat a 10-inch tube or Bundt pan with cooking spray.
• Divide the dough into 24 even pieces (about 2-tablespoon-sized balls at 48 grams each). Round each piece into a ball using your hands. If the dough is too sticky to handle, use a little flour. (Try to use as little flour as possible, as it can make the dough tough.) Cover the dough with plastic wrap on your work surface, and let rest for 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.
• Prepare the topping: In a small pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, toss the Parmesan, white cheddar and pepper to combine. Working with one piece of dough at a time, dip the dough into the garlic butter, then roll it in the cheese mixture to coat.
• Transfer each ball to the prepared pan, arranging in even layers. Do not tightly pack. Drizzle the rolls with the leftover garlic butter and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
• Cover the pan with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until increased in volume, 35 to 45 minutes. (The dough won't fully double in size, but it will look puffy and risen.)
• Toward the end of rise time, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake until the surface is golden-brown, 35 to 40 minutes. (It should have an internal temperature of 200 degrees. Be sure to take the temperature in the center portion of the dough.)
• Let cool 10 to 15 minutes before unmolding. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Grease a Bundt or tube pan with BUTTER; set aside.
• Pre-heat oven to 400*.
• Remove biscuits from tube, flattening each round.
• Cut cream cheese brick into 30 small squares; set aside.
• In a small bowl, mix white sugar & cinnamon; set aside.
• Mix melted butter and brown sugar in another small bowl--it will be grainy; set aside.
• ASSEMBLE: place one cheese square into center of each flattened biscuit.
• Wrap biscuit dough around each cheese square, pinching edges; roll biscuit ball in dipping cinna-sugar; load into prepared pan.
• When you have one layer in the pan, sprinkle about 3 tablespoons of the drizzling butter-sugar mixture over those biscuit balls.
• Continue with the next layer & some drizzling mixture, finishing with the drizzling mixture at the top.
• Pop the pan into the oven for about 30 minutes -- dough should still be just a teensy doughy (not completely dry).
• Flip out of pan immediately; cool.
• Best if served while luke-warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch tube pan.
• Cut bread dough apart 2 1/2-inch pieces. Chop cream cheese into 1/2-inch cubes. Flatten the same number of dough pieces into small circles as you have pieces of cream cheese (reserve remaining dough). Fold a piece of cream cheese into each flattened dough circle and pinch the seams closed. Roll all the filled and unfilled pieces of dough into balls.
• Combine sugar with cinnamon in a bowl and roll all the dough balls in the cinnamon sugar; set aside. Bring butter and brown sugar to a boil in a saucepan, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 minute.
• Layer half the filled and unfilled dough balls with half the walnuts and raisins in the prepared tube pan; pour half the brown sugar syrup over the mixture. Layer remaining dough balls, walnuts, and raisins into the pan and pour remaining syrup over the gorilla bread.
• Bake gorilla bread in the preheated oven until golden brown and the dough has baked through, 35 to 45 minutes. Let bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a serving platter. To serve, pull the bread apart.
