Ingredients

  • 3 cans buttermilk biscuits (the non-flaky ones) – If you get the jumbo biscuits, you can get by with only 2 cans.
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2-3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 sticks butter
  • 1/2 cups brown sugar

Instructions

The night before (if desired):

  • In a gallon zip lock bag (or a really big bowl with a lid), combine the sugar with the cinnamon. Mix it all up.
  • Open the biscuits and cut each biscuit into 4 quarters. Drop the biscuits into the bag.
  • When all are in there, seal and shake. Shake. Shake. Shake what your momma gave you. Shake some more.
  • Put the yummy biscuits into a big bundt pan. (No mini-bundt pans here!)
  • Spread these nuggets out evenly in the bundt pan. Refrigerate if you’re going to bake it later.
  • In a sauce pan, combine the butter & brown sugar. Let sit on the stove (covered) or in the fridge for tomorrow morning.

When ready to bake:

  • Take bundt pan out of the fridge and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Turn on the stove top to melt the butter and sugar. Melt on medium heat. Stir until its all 1 color.
  • Pour over the biscuits.
  • Bake for about 30-40 minutes if it wasn’t refrigerated overnight. Bake a little longer if it started out cold. You can tell it’s done because it’ll be dark brown on top.
  • Let sit for about 15 minutes (or longer) before flipping over on top of a plate. I dare you not to eat a piece! Or 5.
