The overall concept of the bread was fun to make with kids, but I had the same problem as some of the other reviewers with the bread being raw in the middle after 30 min in the oven. I found a package of refrigerated biscuits labeled 'monkey bread' and used those for the recipe (4 tubes in the package equalling the amount stated to use for the dough). It seems the amount of dough recommended in the recipe is too much for the baking time or it would cook better in a tube pan. What was cooked did disappear.

Can anyone tell me what they mean by refrigerated dinner rolls? When I first looked at this I thought they were using biscuit dough.

Made this last night. Only change I made was I replaced the hot dogs with hot Italian sausage. Cooked for 30 minutes could have used another 5 minutes. Was great and looked wonderful.

Baked for 30 minutes like recipe said, and the dough was completly doughy yet, baked another 30, minutes same thing. What a waste of ingredients

Quick, easy and fun. Everyone has asked how to make it.

Made this exactly as recipe called for and after 30 minutes, the dough inside was completely raw. I don't know what it is about Pillsbury dough, but it's always undercooked inside and burned on the outside.

Wow...what a wonderful "Cheesy" appetizer! I loved it and it went over big at our Art Showing.

Changed it up by using ground beef with taco seasoning and the 3-cheese blend. Served it with salsa, guacamole and sour cream and husband scarfed it up! Asked for more, so tonight is with pork sausage and 3-cheese blend and a tossed salad on the side.
