  • 1/4 cup margarine

Instructions

  1. Shape the refrigerated biscuits into balls.
  2. Mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped nuts.
  3. Roll each biscuit ball in melted margarine, then roll in the sugar-cinnamon-nut mixture.
  4. Arrange the coated biscuit balls in the bottom of a well-greased 8 1/2-inch fluted Bundt pan, leaving about 1/4-inch between each.
  5. Make a second layer by placing biscuit balls over the spaces in the first layer.
  6. Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes or until done.
  7. Immediately turn out onto a plate and decorate with thin powdered sugar frosting and cherries.

Tips & Substitutions

For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the sugar-cinnamon-nut mixture. You can also substitute the margarine with melted butter for a richer taste. If you prefer a healthier version, try using whole grain biscuits or adding dried fruits like raisins or cranberries to the nut mixture. Keep an eye on the baking time as ovens may vary.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the Quick Breakfast Ring warm, dusted with powdered sugar frosting, and topped with cherries for a delightful presentation. It pairs wonderfully with a cup of coffee or a glass of Special Iced Tea for a refreshing contrast. Consider offering a side of yogurt or fresh fruit to balance the sweetness.
