Here’s an easy way to be the most popular person at the potluck: Show up with monkey bread. This rich pastry, which has existed in some form or another since people have been making sweet yeasted rolls, consists of individual dough nuggets rolled in something (here it's cinnamon sugar) and baked together in a bundt pan. It’s a treat many remember from childhood, and in my experience at least, it causes eyes to light up as soon as it’s spotted. A caramel sauce really takes things to the next level. For a savory riff on the same concept, check out this cheesy bacon-ranch monkey bread recipe, featuring grated Parmesan, chopped chives, and Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning.
