Monkey Muffins



Barely adapted from the Pioneer Woman

Ingredients:

Leftover bread dough, frozen bread dough, or refrigerated biscuit dough - cut into thirds
Cinnamon
Sugar
Butter
Sweetened condensed milk
vanilla

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray. In a shallow bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar together (I used a 4:1 ratio for sugar to cinnamon). Place a pat of butter (about 1/2 tsp) into the bottom of each muffin cup. Sprinkle about 1/2 tsp of cinnamon/sugar mixture into each cup. Roll dough into balls and then into cinnamon/sugar mixture. Place three balls of dough into each muffin cup. Then place another 1/2 tsp of butter onto each cup of dough, and sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned and bubbly. While the bread is baking, add 1/4 tsp of vanilla to the condensed milk. Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle with approx. 1 and 1/2 tsp of sweetened condensed milk. Allow the rolls to sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the "icing". Best served warm.
