Ingredients

• ½ cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 40-60 canned buttermilk biscuits
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 stick butter
• ½ cup brown sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 and liberally spray a Bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle about 1/3 of the walnuts across the bottom of the pan.

Mix the white sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Separate the biscuits and cut each in half. Roll a biscuit in the cinnamon-sugar, then drop in the pan. Repeat until the first layer or so is complete, then sprinkle in some more walnuts. Continue dropping in the biscuits until you have done about half of them.

Melt the stick of butter in a saucepan and add the brown sugar, mix over low heat to combine. Mix in the remaining nuts. Pour half of that mixture over the pan.

Add the second half of the cinnamon-sugar coated biscuits to the pan. Sprinkle any remaining cinnamon sugar over the top, then pour the rest of the butter-sugar-nut mixture over everything.

Bake for about 30 minutes. Depending on how many biscuits you use, you might need to leave it in another 5 or 10 minutes for the center to cook fully. Remove it from the pan right after taking it from the oven, otherwise it might stick as the sugar mixture cools down.

Rachel’s Secrets of Success

1. Use the small buttermilk biscuit tubes, not the big fat ones (or if you use those, cut them into thirds or quarters). Many grocery stores sell a four-pack of the small tubes – one of those packs is the perfect amount of biscuits.
2. GORILLA BREAD VARIATION: Same ingredients as above, plus 1 8-ounce block of cream cheese. Instructions: cut the cream cheese into cubes, as many cubes as you have biscuits. Instead of cutting each biscuit in half, separate and flatten it out a little bit. Sprinkle a little cinnamon-sugar in the middle, add a cream cheese cube, and fold biscuit in half, sealing the edges around the filling to make a half moon shape. Add these to the Bundt pan in the same manner as above, without rolling the outside in the cinnamon-sugar.
