This sweet and gooey monkey bread combines the flavors of cinnamon rolls and cream cheese for a decadent treat that is perfect for breakfast or dessert. The fluffy bread is coated in a cinnamon-sugar mixture and layered with cream cheese for a rich and creamy finish.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a bundt pan by greasing it with butter.
  2. Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Dip each cinnamon roll quarter into the melted butter and then coat in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  4. Layer the coated cinnamon roll quarters in the prepared bundt pan.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and softened cream cheese until smooth. Drizzle the cream cheese mixture over the cinnamon rolls in the pan.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the monkey bread is golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Allow the monkey bread to cool slightly before inverting it onto a serving plate. Serve warm and enjoy!
