I walk into
the middle school and my first class is homec (which is culinary but with a
different name). My teacher tells my class that we are making monkey bread
today. Nobody is my class knew what it was and I didn’t think it was going to
be good. I was completely wrong. My group first had to get are mis en plac
together. The recipe called for brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, melted
butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, milk and most importantly, the Pillsbury
crescent rolls. We first pre-heated the oven to 350. Then we took the crescent
roles and rolled them into little balls. While 1 group member was doing that,
the 2 other group members were getting the zip lock bags ready. The zip lock
bag contained 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and white sugar and ½ teaspoon of
cinnamon. We did the same thing for 4 bags. We then melted the butter. After
the butter was melted, we were ready to get started. We put about 4 little
balls of the crescent roles in the butter at a time and made sure it had a lot
of butter on it. Then we put the little balls into the zip lock bag with brown
sugar, white sugar and cinnamon. We mixed it all up and then put it on the pan.
We did that for all of the crescent roles and then put it in the oven. I put 10
minutes on the clock. While it was in the oven, I started to make the glaze.
The glaze was 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar, ¼ teaspoon of vanilla and 1
teaspoon of milk. I mixed that all together and at that moment, I could tell this
was going to be really good. After 10 minutes I took the monkey bread out of
the oven. We put the glaze over the monkey bread and then I started to eat it.
It was absolutely amazing. Everyone in my class loved it and most of the people
like me were surprised on how good it was. My brother and I ever since 7th
grade when I made it, make it whenever we have the Pillsbury crescent roles in
the house. I definitely recommend this recipe to people and hopefully we can
make this in class one day.
