Refrigerated biscuits make this sticky, sweet pumpkin monkey bread irresistible and so simple to make. Let it cool and drizzle with maple glaze, and enjoy the taste of fall.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup solid pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
• 8 ounces cream cheese
• 4 cans (7.5 oz each) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
• 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chunks

FOR GLAZE

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• 1-2 tablespoons milk

4. Separate 1 can of dough into 10 biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters (tip: you can stack 3 biscuits together, cut stack into quarters and separate pieces). Place a piece of chocolate in center of each dough quarter and press dough into a ball covering chocolate chunk. Place biscuit pieces into sugar bag and shake to coat. When pieces are coated, arrange in pan.
5. Open second can of biscuits, cut into quarters, roll into balls (without chocolate). Place biscuit pieces into bag and shake to coat and arrange in pan with chocolate stuffed dough balls.

7. Cut and roll remaining 2 cans of biscuits as before and arrange in pan. Pour remaining pumpkin mixture over biscuit pieces. Place pan on cookie sheet to catch any spills.
