My daughters made this ring when they were in 4-H, and we've enjoyed the recipe for many years. Handy refrigerated biscuits get a holiday spin combined with other tasty, colorful ingredients.

This was my first time making bacon monkey bread, and it turned out perfectly! I followed the recipe exactly, and it was so easy to make. I'm definitely going to be making this again.

This is a great dish to serve at a party. It's easy to make ahead of time, and it's always a hit with my guests. I usually double the recipe so that I have plenty to go around.

I made a few modifications to lighten this dish up a bit. I used turkey bacon instead of regular bacon, and I used a sugar-free maple syrup in the glaze. It was still delicious, and it's a bit healthier too!

This was super easy to make, and it turned out great! I used pre-cooked bacon, which saved me some time. I also added a bit of cinnamon to the maple glaze, which gave it a nice warm flavor.

I was curious about how this would turn out, but it was actually really good! The bacon adds a nice crunch, and the maple glaze is sweet and sticky. I'll definitely be making this again.

Not sure about this one. The idea of bacon in a sweet dish seems a bit odd to me. I might try it though, just to see what it's like.

I love the combination of sweet and salty in this dish. The bacon gives it a nice smoky flavor, and the maple glaze is just perfect. Definitely a keeper!
