Monkey Bread

I happened to get a package in the mail. It was too big for the mailbox, and i'd requested them NOT to leave packages on the porch - so i went to pick it up at the post office yesterday. It happened to be a belated birthday present from my dear hubby's dad & his wife. Now, knowing me for the sugar-freak that i am, they picked the perfect gift! It was a pottery mold for making monkey bread. So,... of course we HAD to try it out the minute that the kids got home from school. I used one of the recipes off the box - similar to what i normally make, but with egg and milk (i used soy) in the dough, and pecans added in with the sugar and cinnamon. It was absolutely delectable! I LOVE the way that stoneware cooks. AND,... there are actually some non-sweet recipes on the box for Garlic-parmesan Monkey Bread and Sesame-Herb Monkey Bread. Although i'm sure the favorite for the kids will remain standard sugar & cinnamon monkey bread, M and I will LOVE to try out the others!
