ORANGE CREAM CHEESE COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Combine the granulated sugar, pecans and orange rind in a bowl; set aside for future use.
• Separate biscuit dough into individual biscuits; then gently separate individual biscuits in half.
• Place a cream cheese square between the 2 halves and pinch sides to seal each back together.
• Dip in butter and dredge in granulated sugar mixture.
• Stand biscuits on edge in a lightly greased 12-cup Bundt pan, spacing evenly.
• Drizzle with remaining butter and sprinkle with remaining granulated sugar mixture.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until golden.
• Immediately invert onto a serving plate.
• Glaze: Combine powdered sugar and orange juice; stir well.
• Drizzle over warm bread.
• Serve immediately.
• You may omit the cream cheese but still separate biscuits in half and dip as normal in sugar mixture.
• We do a half and half batch.
• There is not a strong orange flavor here.
