The inverted cake still had pudding on it that didn't brown. I would have liked it better if the biscuits were cut into pieces. As directed inthe recipe there were big chunks of biscuit with no sweetness throughout. I don't see what the pudding did for the cake. I would omit the pudding and use butter, cinnamon and brown sugar in it's place. I have a recipe for Monkey Bread that is similar and much tastier.

I didn't like it, the flavor wasn't that great and didn't taste like any coffee cake I had before.

This recipe was easy and delicious! I tweaked it a little and used 3 cans (16.3 oz) each, of Pillsbury Grands bisquits and sliced each one in half to layer. I had 3 layers total and I used the 'French Vanilla'pudding mix instead. I baked 35 minutes at 350 and it came out perfect! I will be making this again :-)
