Birthday Monkey Bread Breakfast....

Look what I just found.....The perfect birthday breakfast....and March is birthday MONTH for our family.....21 family birthdays on my calendar this month!!  So I am always looking for an alternative for cake this month to change it up a bit!!!  I love birthdays.....and my family!!!

Birthday Monkey Bread Breakfast
1 can Pillsbury Grands Homestyle Biscuits (16.3 oz.)  OR use bread maker dough
1/2 c. butter, melted
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/3 c. dry cake mix (vanilla or whatever you like)
2 T. cinnamon
candy sprinkles
ICING
1/4 c. butter
1/3 c. milk
1/2 c. dry cake mix
1/3 c. sugar
Spray 4 - 4 oz. souffle dishes with cooking spray.  Separate dough into 8 biscuits.  Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.  Roll into balls.  Melt butter and place in a small bowl and set aside.  Mix together, brown sugar, 1/3 c. cake mix, cinnamon and sprinkles.  Dip each dough ball into melted butter and then roll in the sugar mixture.  Place 8 balls in each souffle dish.  Bake at 375 for 20 minutes, until puffed up and ligthly browned.
While they are baking, melt 1/4 c. butter in saucepan.  Stir in 1/2 c. cake mix and the sugar.  Mix with whisk to form thick glaze.  Remove from heat.  Cool 5 minutes.  Spread over monkey bread and top with more sprinkles and a candle of course!!
HINTS:  If glaze is too thick add a little water. If you are pushed for time in the mornings.....bake the bread portion the day before.....then reheat and glaze that morning.
