biscuits plus cinnamon and sugar.. looks delicious right?
then even better once i added melted butter and brown sugar
i'm certain i've mentioned that i am not a baker before now but in case you missed it.. I AM NOT A BAKER!!! take this for example: you may think this should've been an easy think to make, especially since it's pillsbury dough ready to cook, well think again. yes i managed to screw it up.
i will say in my defense that i didn't have the right pan to cook it in so i had a genius idea that i don't need a fluted pan and i can just cook it in a mixing bowl. shows how much i know about baking right? WRONG, it was a bad idea. so bad in fact that the dough only cooked on the top, bottom and sides. so i had to pick the pieces apart and try cooking the middle on it's own. but it happened again, yep i had to pick the sides off again and throw it back in the oven. i believe it's what they call a sticky situation. needless to say this was more or less a masterful disaster but there were some parts that i managed to salvage and eat. better luck next time i guess.
this was my finished product
monkey bread that i somehow turned into
orange chicken.. who knew?
