Pinch Cake

Ahhh Pinch Cake!  Some people call this Monkey Bread but no matter what you call it, it's good!  We got this recipe from my sister.  It is one of those things that when you start eating it you can't stop til it's gone.  My mom usually made it at Christmas, then it became my oldest son's favorite cake so she would make him one for his birthday.  Even since my mom passed away someone in the family makes him one for his birthday.  This year I passed the recipe on to his wife who surprised him with one.

4  cans of biscuits
1/2 cup of sugar
cinnamon
1  stick of butter
1  cup of sugar

Start by putting 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl and add cinnamon to taste(we like a lot) . Open one can of biscuits and cut them in1/4 pieces, drop them in a larger bowl and drizzle a couple of spoons of the cinnamon mix over and stir them until coated.  Repeat until all four cans are done, and of the cinnamon mix that's left, pour over and stir until biscuits are coated.  Put in a lightly oiled bunt pan and place in fridge.  Melt butter over med heat and add sugar, stir until melted.  Pour over biscuits.  Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the biscuits closest to the tube is done.  Here's the tricky part.  Place a pan or dish over the top of the bunt pan and flip over.  Do this over the sink, if you spill it in the floor it is a sticky, sticky mess.  Hope you enjoy!
