I saw a recipe on Pintrest that looked amazing so I decided to give it a try. My comments and review are at the end.
Here’s the original from Pip & Ebby, I’ve modified a bit Cream Cheese Monkey Bread.
Ingredients
Dinner Rolls
Cream Cheese
Butter
Cinnamon
Sugar
Brown Sugar
Quick Steps
1. Put the rolls into a pan. I used a round pan because it would be easier to clean than a bunt pan as used in the original.
2. Use your finger to make a divot in the rolls then add some cream cheese.
3. Melt enough butter to cover.
4. Sprinkle a good amount of cinnamon, sugar, and brown sugar over the top.
5. Bake until complete. I know it’s done because the smell begins to fill my house.

Review and Comments
The picture in the original recipe looked so much better than mine! Overall, I think I should have added MORE SUGAR!!!
1. I don’t think I used enough sugar. More sugars would have made it have more of a consistent taste.
2. There is too much bread! When I’m eating something sweet, I don’t like much of the original dough to be un-coated. Because the dinner rolls are thick, much of the inside of the bread tasted just like a typical dinner roll.
3. The cream cheese threw off the flavor a bit. I’m a big fan of cream cheese but I think because the cream cheese was just inside a large piece of dough, it was a bit boring and bland. A suggestion to remedy this and add flavor is to use a flavored cream cheese, Brown sugar and Maple would have been a great choice.
