Mexican Chocolate Cinnamon Coffee Cake
SundayMorningBreakfast

Rich and moist, inspired by the classic Mexican combination of chocolate and cinnamon.


Ingredients:

1 1/2 sticks butter (12 tablespoons)

1 package (3.4 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Dash of salt

1/2 cup sour cream

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

12-ounce tube of flakey biscuits (10 biscuits)

Dash of cayenne pepper


Recipe:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium saucepan, melt butter.  Remove from heat and stir in pudding mix, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.  Add sour cream and chocolate chips and blend well.  Set aside.

Separate biscuits, and using fingers, divide each one into two pieces.  Line a non-stick bundt pan with ten of the biscuit halves.  Spoon 1/3 of the chocolate mixture over the top.  Arrange remaining ten biscuits on top and pour remaining chocolate mixture over the top.  Sprinkle with a little more cinnamon and a little ground cayenne.  Bake 25 -30 minutes, or until chocolate has 'dried'.  Allow to cool before removing from pan.  Serves 8 - 10.
