Ingredients
2 Cups M&M's Peanut Milk Chocolate Candies, divided
3/4 Cup Butter, melted
3/4 Cup Firmly Packed Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon

  2. In bowl, whisk together butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and cinnamon until well combined. 
  3. Separate dough into individual biscuits; cut each biscuit into quarters. Wrap each piece of dough around 2 M&M's, pinching seam to enclose candy. 
  4. Dip balls in butter mixture, shaking off excess. Arrange in prepared pan; scatter remaining whole M&M's among balls.

TIP:

  • Make-ahead: Bake and turn out monkey bread up to 6 hours in advance. Warm in 300 degrees F oven for 10 minutes before drizzling with glaze and sprinkling with chopped M&M's.
