Gorilla Bread, Ready For Action!
Picture this: a glorious mix of cinnamon, sugar, and just a hint of monkey magic, all wrapped up in fluffy rolls. It’s the kind of breakfast (or dinner, we don’t judge) that makes you want to swing from the rafters. So let’s get to making our ooey-gooey masterpiece!
Ingredients:
- 1 package of Rhodes frozen dinner rolls (approx. 20 rolls)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter (melted, because we’re not complicating things)
- 1 cup brown sugar (because life is a little sweeter with brown sugar)
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional, but let’s be honest, they sure are a nice crunch)
Instructions:
- First things first: Let’s thaw those rolls! Arrange them in a greased bundt pan so they’re all cozy together. This is their moment!
- In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this magical mixture all over the rolls like you’re adding fairy dust to a cake. Trust me, it works wonders!
- Drizzle that melted butter over the rolls. Yes, drizzle! We want a buttery glaze to hug every single roll.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar and chopped nuts (if you’re using them) on top like a generous sprinkle of fun.
- Cover the bundt pan with a cloth and let it rise for about 3-5 hours. This is where the magic happens. Take a nap, have a coffee, do whatever floats your boat!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you admire your doughy creation.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until it’s all golden brown and smells like a bakery exploded in the best way. Your neighbors will be jealous!
- Once baked, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert it onto a plate. The gooey deliciousness will cascade out—like a sweet waterfall of joy!
And there you have it—Gorilla Bread that could make even the grumpiest of gorillas tap dance with joy! Grab a slice, dig in, and relish the delightful chaos of flavors all at once. It’s gorilla-rific!
