Ingredients

1 tube Pillsbury Grands biscuits
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 stick butter

Directions

1Clean eight small canning jars. Spray each generously with nonstick cooking spray.
2Open the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into eight small pieces.
3Mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Melt the butter in a small, microwave-safe bowl.
4Dip the biscuits in butter, then in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Place eight sugared biscuit pieces in each prepared jar.
5Bake jars in an oven preheated to 400 degrees for 16-18 minutes.
6Allow jars to cool slightly before spooning frosting atop. Serve immediately or cover hot jars with a canning lid and ring. Listen for a "pop" that indicates the jar has sealed. Feel free to ship jars that have sealed in the mail, so long as they arrive at their destination within 3 days.
7Enjoy!

I just made these as Christmas gifts for all my friends and family, they are SO adorable! I had mason Jars on hand so I doubled the recipe and it worked out pretty well. Thanks for the cute idea!

Hi Deansbooboo - You do not need to add water to the pan in order to bake the jars. The jars can go directly into the oven.

Hi Anon - Use your favorite frosting to top the Monkey Bread. The blogger recommends vanilla-flavored.

What frosting do you add before sealing?

To prevent it from going bad, growing mold, etc. I'd try making a batch and leave one out to see how long it takes before yuckiness sets in, as that may be a guesstimate.

Why must it arrive in 3 days if it is sealed? Was wanting to send overseas to a friend in the military.....I know that will take longer than 3 days.
