Description

Sweet, bite‑sized pieces of biscuit dough coated in cinnamon sugar — like mini churro‑style treats.


Ingredients

  • 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated biscuits (8 count)
  • ½ cup salted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut each biscuit into quarters, spacing the pieces on the baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 7–10 minutes or until cooked through (still pale in color). :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
  4. While baking, melt the butter in a small bowl and in another bowl mix sugar + cinnamon together. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
  5. Remove biscuits from oven and let cool 3–5 minutes to handle safely. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
  6. Dip each biscuit piece first in the melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon‑sugar coating, placing back on the baking sheet. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
  7. Optionally, place the coated bites under the broiler 1–2 minutes to caramelize the sugar—watch closely to avoid burning. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
  8. Transfer to a cooling rack, cool briefly, then serve warm. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Notes

  • Watch the broiler step carefully — sugar can burn quickly.
  • These are best served warm, fresh out of the oven.
  • You can prepare a simple icing (powdered sugar + milk + vanilla) to drizzle over if you like. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
