- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar optional for a caramel touch

Instructions
- Prep the Dough: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan with cooking spray or a drizzle of melted butter.

- Cinnamon Sugar Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Toss the biscuit pieces in the mixture until fully coated.
- Layering: Add a layer of biscuit pieces into the bundt pan. If using, sprinkle some chopped nuts in this layer.
- Butter Overload: Drizzle half of the melted butter over the biscuit layer, then sprinkle a bit of brown sugar if desired.
- Repeat the Process: Continue layering with more biscuit dough, butter, and nuts until everything is layered and used up.
- Pour the Remaining Butter: Pour the remaining butter over the top of the final layer.
- Bake to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
