Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
  • 2 (12-ounce) cans refrigerated biscuits (10 count)
  • 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon. In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over low heat, stirring well; set aside. Cut the cream cheese into 20 equal cubes. Press the biscuits out with your fingers and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar. Place a cube of cream cheese in the center of each biscuit, wrapping and sealing the dough around the cream cheese. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the nuts into the bottom of the bundt pan. Place half of the prepared biscuits in the pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, pour half of the melted butter mixture over the biscuits, and sprinkle on 1/2 cup of nuts. Layer the remaining biscuits on top, sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar, pour the remaining butter mixture over the biscuits, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of nuts. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes. Place a plate on top and invert.

    I love your Gorilla Bread I made it for my family and they loved it. From one of your kid cookbooks I got from my parents a few years ago:

    I have been making this bread since I first saw Paula make it for Jimmy Carter and I love it.

    Over the years I have made a few changes: I use the canned Buttermilk biscuits (10/can, and in addition to the sugar/cinnamon mixture I add a dash of: vanilla powder, dark chili powder, ground sage (it adds a minty taste, Chinese 5-spice, and freshly ground nutmeg.

    I put a dollop of this mixture on the inside of the biscuit and roll the biscuit in the mixture to cover the outside. I cook it at 50 minutes in a non-stick Bundt pan at 325 degrees.

    My co-workers like it so much that one of them saves the nut/sugar mixture in the bottom of the box for their oatmeal/cereal the next day.
