Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 16 ounces Refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a bundt pan or a deep baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
Step 3
Cut the cream cheese into 16 small 1/2-inch cubes. Open the biscuit dough and separate it into individual biscuits.
Step 4
Flatten each biscuit slightly and place one cube of cream cheese in the center. Fold the edges of the dough around the cream cheese and pinch the seams to seal, forming a ball. Repeat with the remaining biscuits.
Step 5
Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated, then place them loosely into the prepared bundt pan. If using nuts, sprinkle them in between the dough balls for added flavor and texture.
Step 6
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and cook until the mixture is smooth and bubbling, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and pour the mixture evenly over the dough in the pan.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Step 8
Carefully invert the bundt pan onto a serving plate to release the Sticky Buns Gorilla Bread. Serve warm and enjoy!
