Made using refrigerated biscuit dough, stuffed with chocolate, and covered in holiday sprinkles, this easy monkey bread recipe is the perfect sweet treat to serve your family Christmas morning.

Ooey gooey pull-apart monkey bread is one of my all-time favorite breakfast treats.

Truth be told, monkey bread makes a killer dessert as well. All that sugar — and in this case chocolate — make it the perfect treat for any time of day. Just like these OREO cinnamon buns.

Christmas Monkey Bread

Treat your family to a little something sweet this holiday season with this chocolate-stuffed monkey bread recipe made with biscuit dough.

While all monkey bread is delicious, this Christmas monkey bread is especially amazing due to each little piece being stuffed with chocolate kisses.

Each bite is packed with flavor and oozing with chocolate. It is beyond incredible.

How to Make Monkey Bread with Biscuits

First, gather your ingredients and supplies.

Ingredients:

• 2 packages biscuit dough (more details on this below)
• 2 sticks unsalted butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 4 tbsp. cinnamon
• Hershey Kisses (any flavor)
• Christmas sprinkles

Supplies:

• bundt pan
• non-stick spray
• large plastic baggie

We use store-bought biscuit dough for this monkey bread recipe, making it super easy to prepare.

You can usePillsbury™ Grands!™ Flaky Layers refrigerated Original biscuits or any other flaky biscuit dough.

Simple lay the biscuit dough out on a cutting board and cut each biscuit into quarters.

Pro Tip: Use a pizza roller to easily quarter the biscuit dough.

Then, working with one piece of dough at a time:

1. flatten the dough
2. add sprinkles
3. add a kiss
4. roll into a ball

Next, combine the white sugar and cinnamon in a large baggie.

Toss dough balls in the baggie, a few at a time, until well coated. Then, place the balls in a prepared bundt pan. Continue until all dough balls are coated and in pan.

Melt butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Pour sauce over dough in bundt pan.

Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until the outside of the dough turns deep golden brown.

Allow to cool for 10 minutes then turn over onto a plate. Add more sprinkles — you can never have too many sprinkles in my opinion!

Now this should be obvious but is worth mentioning: do not cut your monkey bread.

Use your fingers to pull apart pieces to eat. Yes, it will be sticky and messy, but it is so worth it.

Serve with a glass of Christmas breakfast punch for an extra special Christmas morning breakfast.

I hope you and your family enjoy this Christmas morning chocolate stuffed monkey bread recipe and that you have a very happy holiday.
