A Monkey Bread Christmas
Husband and I had our own little Christmas celebration yesterday. In celebration, I decided to make something that I hadn’t before for brunch–and, to do so from scratch, which I am only apt to do on the weekends. Also, in celebration, dinner included a dry Riesling, pork pate, greens, dried olives, jam, crackers, fresh grapefruit grenata, and the secret Slatton family recipe Chocolate Bread. In between these two meals, Husband and I enjoyed coffee, present opening, the record sounds of the Beach Boys, egg nog, cookbook reading, and a lot of down time together. So nice.
While the highlight of the day was quiet time with Mr. Man, the monkey bread held the title for Best Food I Had Not Previously Made And Should Have. (Again, I must thank my amazing food friends over at Apartment Therapy’s The Kitchn for this wondiferous concoction of mmm. I will not add the recipe below, because other than adding a few spices and substituting 1% milk and some soy milk, the recipe was too good to mess with. But, I will tantalize you with a picture….)
Eat Me!
merry christmas to you guys!! love the sound of the monkey bread – yum
