Chocolate Chip Monkey Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 11-inch oval baking dish with cooking spray.
• Open the biscuits. Cut the biscuits in half horizontally for a total of 16 slices.
• Place one slice in a large bowl. Use a pastry brush to brush the top of the biscuit with maple syrup. Top with 1 teaspoon each of chocolate chips and bacon pieces. Top with another biscuit slice perpendicularly, and press lightly to make them stick. Repeat the process, building a tall stack of biscuit dough, until you're out of biscuit halves. (You won't use all the maple syrup; save 1 tablespoon for the drizzle.)
• Carefully transfer the stack to the prepared baking dish, laying the stack horizontally in the center, and pour any remaining syrup and chocolate over the top. Bake until golden on top, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Let cool 10 minutes, then whisk together the melted butter and reserved maple syrup in a medium bowl. Whisk in the powdered sugar until thick, then add the milk and maple extract and whisk until smooth. Drizzle carefully over the bread and let set, about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes or until sugar is melted; set aside., Cut each biscuit into quarters.

Add biscuits, a few pieces at a time, and toss to coat. , Spoon 1/4 cup caramel into a well-greased 10-in. fluted tube pan. Arrange a third of the biscuits in the pan and drizzle with 1/4 cup caramel. Repeat layers twice., Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.

• Cut biscuits in half and cube the cream cheese (32 pieces).
• Flatten each biscuit and place one cube of cream cheese and a few chocolate chips in the center of each. Fold the biscuit dough around the cream cheese and chocolate and form into a ball.
• In a large plastic bag combine white sugar and cinnamon. Add 6-8 dough balls to the bag, seal the bag, and shake until well coated. Repeat for the remainder of the stuffed dough pieces.
• In a microwave safe bowl add brown sugar and butter. Microwave on high for 70 seconds - stopping halfway to stir. Remove from microwave and stir until it reaches a caramel consistency.
• In a greased bundt pan, sprinkle half of the walnuts, half the dough pieces, and drizzle half the caramel glaze. Repeat with remaining walnuts, dough, and glaze.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes.
• Remove from oven and turn upside down onto a plate to cool for 10 minutes before lifting off the pan (this way the warm glaze runs back through and fully coats all the bread)
