What Is Monkey Bread?
Let’s spend a moment learning more about cookie butter monkey bread before we start cooking it. Monkey Bread is really just a sweet pull-apart pastry formed from tiny dough balls.
They are typically coated in cinnamon sugar and baked together in a bundt pan. The result is a beautifully layered and sticky treat. And one that you can easily pull apart with your fingers, hence the name Monkey Bread.
Making Cookie Butter Monkey Bread in 3 Simple Steps
Cookie butter monkey bread is simple enough to make. I had my oldest son help me prepare the recipe, which was also a great way to get them in the kitchen! Here is how to proceed:
Step 1
Spray cooking spray on the bundt cake pan and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut each biscuit into four pieces when you’ve separated the dough from the cans. The cinnamon and granulated sugar should be combined in a big baggie.
Shake well to combine. Place the dough pieces in the baggie and shake to coat with the sugar-cinnamon mixture. It’s best to do this in batches, so they are covered completely and don’t stick together.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the butter and cookie-butter. Microwave for one minute until melted. Add in the brown sugar and stir until well mixed.
In the bundt pan, distribute half of the biscuit pieces and half of the cookie butter mixture. The leftover cookie butter mixture should then be topped with the remaining biscuit pieces.
Step 3
Proceed with baking for approximately 45–50 minutes until the surface attains a brown hue and the middle is adequately firm.
After baking, allow the dish to cool for a duration of 5 minutes. Following that, position a serving dish atop the bundt pan and invert it.
Remove the pan. In a small bowl, melt the 1/4 cup cookie butter until it’s smooth (30–45 seconds is usually enough time). Stir to make sure it’s all melted and then drizzle over the top of the Cookie Butter Monkey Bread. Serve warm.

How To Store Leftovers
While it’s possible to eat a whole loaf in one sitting, most families will not. This means you must store your leftovers. In order to properly store your cake, make sure to use an airtight container.
You don’t want to lose the moisture from the cake if it needs to sit for a day or two. You might find that the freshness is gone fairly quickly. But if stored in an airtight container, it will retain its moisture and still offer a wonderful taste and texture for a couple of days.
