- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup butter Melted
Glaze:
- 3 cups Powdered sugar

- Yellow green and purple sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray the inside of a bundt pan with non-stick baking spray.
- Remove the cinnamon rolls from their tubes and cut each biscuit in half and then in half again so you have four pieces from each biscuit.
- In a medium sized bowl add the brown sugar, diced pecans, and a dash of salt.
- Stir to combine. In a separate small bowl, add the butter and melt.
- Add the vanilla to the melted butter and stir to combine.
- Start by taking one piece of cinnamon roll, dipping it in the melted butter and then rolling it through the sugar mixture.
- Lay the pieces in the bottom of the bundt pan and continue until all pieces are used.
- Place the bundt pan on a baking sheet and place in the center of the oven. Bake for 40 - 45 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let sit for 15 minutes.
- Place a cake stand upside down on the top (bottom) of the bundt pan. Slowly flip both the cake stand and the pan upside down.
- Slowly begin to remove the bundt pan from your monkey bread. The monkey Bread should slide right out. Let cool completely.
- In a small bowl add the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Whisk until fully combined and smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over your monkey bread. Sprinkle the green, yellow, and purple cake sprinkles on top. Serve immediately.
