3 (12 oz) packages refrigerated biscuit dough. Cut into 1 inch pieces.
1 C white sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 C Butter
1 C Brown Sugar
1/2 C pecans

Preheat over to 350, grease bundt pan. Mix white sugar and cinnamon in bag. Place pieces of biscuits in bag and shake until covered. Place in bundt pan, if using nuts layer between dough pieces. Melt butter, brown sugar and boil for 1 minute. Pour over dough. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes. Let bread cool and flip onto plate.

If bread isn't cooked all the way through (mine rarely is), I usually flip onto a baking sheet and let it bake an addition 5-10 minutes.
