Monkey Bread

We had a couple really rough nights at work this past week, so I thought what would help morale...? Hmm... how about a delicious baked good?! Brilliant!! I was trying to decide what to make when one of my coworkers introduced me to monkey bread. This recipe is super simple and everyone LOVED it! Plus, the whole unit smelled like delicious cinnamon-y fantastic-ness. Even the MDs came to the nurse's station to find out what the yummy smell was.

Ingredients

24 frozen Rhodes Rolls (in the freezer section)
1 c brown sugar
1 box butterscotch cook and serve pudding mix
1/4 c white sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 stick butter, melted
pecans or walnuts, chopped

Directions

Right before going to bed, sprinkle pecans or walnuts into a greased bundt pan.

Put 24 frozen Rhodes rolls into the pan. Mix brown sugar and dry pudding mix together and sprinkle over frozen rolls.
Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle on top of that.

Melt butter and slowly pour over the rolls, trying to cover all the sugar.
Leave on the counter overnight and when you get up, the rolls should have risen nicely.
Put the bundt pan on a cookie sheet in a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and pour rolls upside down onto a large platter. Serve warm.
