Gorilla Grodd Bread
There's monkey bread. There's gorilla bread. There's PAULA @#$%ING DEEN's gorilla bread. And now, there's my modified version, which I'll affectionately name Gorilla Grodd Bread after our good friend's two-point-earning answer for world leaders in Scattergories. We make this desert disaster just once a year, usually after 10:00pm in the middle of a marathon board-gaming session. It's unhealthy, but delicious.
