It's hard to believe, but Christmas is almost here and with it holiday parties, the decorations I love so much, and the tree we set up in our living room. I love decorating the tree with my husband, daughters, and our granddaughter. I always prepare some snack to get everyone into the holiday spirit. Using Pillsbury™ products, such as Pillsbury™ Grands!™, it really is easy to make delicious breads and sand-wiches for our families, and today I want to prepare for you a crowd-pleasing favorite: monkey bread. The original monkey bread recipe is a product of the 70s and has been traced back to California. In-spired by a sweet, Hungarian breakfast bread, its name makes reference to the pieces of dough that to-gether form the loaf, a puzzle-like bread resembling a barrel of monkeys.
