Chocolate Filled Monkey Bread Recipes

Steps:

• For the dough: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a loaf pan with parchment or spray with cooking spray, then set aside.
• Combine the dates and almond milk in a blender and blend until smooth.
• Add the almond flour, gluten-free flour, cacao powder, baking powder, apple cider vinegar, baking soda and salt. Blend until thoroughly combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as necessary.
• Roll the dough into small balls roughly 1 inch in diameter.
• For the chocolate coating: Add the dates, cacao powder and coconut water to a cleaned blender and blend until smooth.
• Dip each ball of dough in the coating mixture and use a spoon to cover with a thin layer. Transfer the dough balls to the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle with chocolate chips, if using.
• Bake until the monkey bread has light golden brown, crisp edges, approximately 40 minutes.
• Cool for at least 15 minutes, then spoon out or pull apart to serve. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (175˚C)
• 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)
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 10-cup Bundt or fluted tube pan with baking spray; set aside. Combine 2 envelopes hot cocoa mix and 1/4 cup sugar in large resealable food storage bag. Prepare glaze by combining remaining hot cocoa mix and sugar in small bowl; whisk in Parkay and milk until blended.
• Place half of biscuit pieces in cocoa mixture in bag; seal and shake to coat. Arrange coated biscuit pieces in bottom of pan; pour half of glaze over biscuits. Repeat with remaining biscuit pieces and glaze.
• Bake 30 minutes or until brown. Cool in pan 5 minutes. Invert onto serving tray. Pull apart and serve with Reddi-wip.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Slice all the biscuits in half, so you get 32 pieces. Dice the cream cheese to get at least 32 cubes. Flatten out each biscuit piece. Have the chocolate chips and diced cream cheese at hand. Place 1 cube of cream cheese and a couple of chocolate chips in the middle of each flattened biscuit piece. Fold the biscuit dough around them. Shape each piece into a ball. Grab a 1 gallon plastic bag and fill it with the white sugar and cinnamon. After they're combined, add some dough balls to the bag, seal it, and shake well, until the dough balls are well-coated. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough balls, using 6 to 8 pieces at a time. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the brown sugar and butter, then heat in a microwave for 70 seconds. Stop the microwave half way through to stir the mixture. When finished, stir again until you achieve the right consistency. This should leave you with a yummy caramel glaze. Spray a Bundt pan with some non-stick cooking spray. Add half the walnuts to the bottom. Add half the dough pieces to the pan and pour over half of the caramel glaze evenly. Repeat the procedure by adding walnuts again, followed by dough and glaze Place the pan in the oven. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. When ready, remove it from the oven and flip it over using a plate. Let it cool for at least 10 minutes before uncovering.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Spray 12-cup fluted tube pan or 10-inch tube pan with cooking spray; sprinkle flour, then nuts into pan. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter; mix with sugar. Spoon over nuts.
• Separate each can of dough into 10 biscuits; flatten each to 1/4-inch thickness. Spoon peanut butter onto centers of biscuits, adding about 1 tsp. peanut butter to each biscuit. Top each with 1 chocolate square. Gather up edge of each biscuit to enclose filling, then press together to seal. Roll each into ball.
• Melt remaining butter. Empty pudding mix into shallow dish. Dip top of each ball in butter, then in pudding mix. Arrange half the balls, dipped sides up, in single layer in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining balls to make second layer. Top with any remaining pudding mix, then drizzle with any remaining butter.
