Ingredients
-
1 cup packed brown sugar
-
3/4 cup butter, cubed
-
2 cans (16.3 ounces each) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
-
64 milk chocolate kisses
-
1/2 cup sugar
-
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
-
1.
In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes or until sugar is melted; set aside.
-
2.
Cut each biscuit into quarters. Shape each piece around a chocolate kiss; pinch seams to seal. In a large bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Add biscuits, a few pieces at a time, and toss to coat.
-
3.
Spoon 1/4 cup caramel into a well-greased 10-in. fluted tube pan. Arrange a third of the biscuits in the pan and drizzle with 1/4 cup caramel. Repeat layers twice.
-
4.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° until golden brown, 40-45 minutes. Cover loosely with foil if biscuits brown too quickly. Immediately invert onto a serving plate. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
