Preparation

Step 1

Combine 1/4 c granulated sugar and 1 Tbsp cinnamon in a large bowl. Cut biscuits into fourths, and add to sugar mixture; toss to coat. Set aside.

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and remaining 1/4 c granulated sugar, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and pecans.

Arrange 5 coated biscuit pieces in a lightly greased foil muffin cup; place in a muffin pan. Repeat with remaining biscuit pieces. Drizzle evenly with pecan mixture.

Bake at 400º for 18 minutes or until golden.
