Instructions
  1. 1

    Make the coating

    Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a bowl, stir together the sugar, the cinnamon, the chopped pecans (if you're using them), and one 3.5-ounce box of dry, cook-and-serve butterscotch pudding mix — not instant. You're not cooking the pudding at all; it's going in dry as part of the coating.

  1. 2

    Cut and coat the biscuits

    Melt the butter and pour it into a separate shallow bowl. Cut each refrigerated biscuit into quarters and roll each piece into a little ball. Dip each ball into the melted butter, then drop it into the sugar-pudding mixture and toss to coat.

  2. 3

    Layer it into the pan

    Arrange the coated dough balls in a greased 10-inch fluted tube pan (a bundt pan works too), layering them in loosely rather than packing them tight. That little bit of breathing room between pieces is what lets the bread pull apart cleanly once it's baked.

  3. 4

    Bake and invert

    Bake until deeply golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes — don't skip this part, it lets the sticky coating set up just enough to hold together — then invert it onto a serving plate while it's still warm so the caramelized sauce pools over the top.
