I had some trouble getting the monkey bread to rise properly. I think I might have overproofed the dough.

This monkey bread was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I've made this recipe with both canned biscuits and homemade biscuit dough. Both versions are delicious, but I prefer the homemade dough.

This was my first time making monkey bread and it was surprisingly easy. I used a store-bought biscuit dough and it turned out great.
