Orange Monkey Muffins
- 3 cans (8 Oz. Can) Refrigerated Biscuits
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
- 1 Tablespoon Orange Zest
- 1 stick Butter, Cut Into Slices
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
- 1 Tablespoon Triple Sec
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease cupcake tins with cooking spray.
- Cut biscuits into quarters; set aside. In a large Ziploc bag, combine sugar, cinnamon and orange zest; mix to thoroughly combine. Place quartered biscuits in the bag and seal shut. Shake biscuit pieces until all are well-coated.
- Place 6 to 8 sugared pieces into greased cupcake tins. Next, place 1 pat of butter on each cup of biscuit pieces and top with 1 tablespoon of leftover sugar mixture.
- Place muffins in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, mix together powdered sugar, orange juice and triple sec. If icing is too thick, add more orange juice until desired consistency is reached.
- Allow muffins to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes, then run a knife around each tin and gently lift out and onto a cooling rack that has been placed over a baking sheet. Generously drizzle each muffin with orange icing and allow icing to dry.
