I'm hungry already. And because I'm such a doll, here's the ultra-yummy and easy recipe for the Monkey Bread:
MONKEY BREAD
2 1-lb packages pizza dough
4 oz. butter, melted (plus more for the pan)
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Directions: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl. Pull off the pizza dough into 1-2 inch balls. Dip each ball in the melted butter, then roll the ball in the cinnamon sugar mix. Put each ball into a buttered bundt pan. Any butter left over should be poured over the top of the, er, balls, and the remaining cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top. Stick it in the oven for about 40 minutes, or until the top is all nice and golden brown. Take out of the oven, let sit for about 5 minutes, then flip over onto a plate. Guests can just pull the bread apart with their fingers... but be forewarned: it's mega-gooey!

Oh my word - I haven't seen monkey bread in YEARS. My mom used to make it all the time when we were little. For breakfast on weekends. I can't imagine eating this for breakfast now!!! Yours looks yummy!
Monkey Bread is the Bomb!

I love me some Monkey Bread!
My friend made it for a party a couple of years ago, and she used ice cream...I need to get the recipe from her to see why she uses that instead of the recipe you have. :-)
This is actually a recipe I stole from the December issue of RealSimple magazine - it was in their "fake it don't make it" section. I think there are many, many varieties of monkey bread! This one looked the easiest for me... ;-)
