Aunt Kim's Monkey Bread

My sister's children called these "Monkey Balls" when they were little, and somehow the name has stuck. It is about as junky and unhealthy as they come, but inevitably one of my children asks for it each year for a birthday breakfast. This year is no exception.

3 cans canned biscuits
1 C. sugar/2 tsp. cinnamon - mixture to roll them in
1 stick butter
1 C. brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla

Break (or cut, for ease) biscuits into fourths. Roll in sugar mixture and stack in well-buttered Bundt pan. Pour extra sugar mix from rolling over top. Meanwhile, melt butter. Add brown sugar and vanilla. Stir until just boiling, then drizzle over mixture in Bundt pan. Bake for 35 mins. at 350 degrees. Turn upside down onto plate and serve warm by "slicing"/pulling apart and spooning onto plates.
