This recipe for easy monkey bread muffins uses refrigerated biscuit dough cooked in muffin pans. My son, who calls these "monkey sins," loves to shake the biscuit pieces with the spiced sugar. I love that I can make a few of these at a time and eat them warm without waiting for a big enough crowd to justify a full tube pan.

Kentucky Blue Ribbon All-Butter Pound Cake
This is the recipe my Grandmother would make every year during the holidays. I found the recipe tucked in her Bible when she passed, and it was written in her Grandmother's handwriting. It's been in my family for at least 7 generations, and in 2012, I won a Blue Ribbon at the Kentucky State fair by following her exact instructions. Tastes like pure love!
