Ingredients
- 1 lb (16 oz) Velveeta®, cut into cubes
- 1 can (10 oz each) Ro*Tel® Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, undrained
- PAM® Baking Spray
- 3 pkgs (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1/2 stick butter, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro, garnish
Directions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine Ro*Tel® and Velveeta® and microwave 3 to 5 minutes, stirring after 3, until completely melted and queso is well blended. Transfer to refrigerator and chill 30 minutes or until queso has thickened enough to scoop.
- Preheat oven to 375°F and prepare a Bundt pan by spraying with PAM®.
- Unroll crescent dough and scoop about 2 teaspoons of queso onto the center of a dough triangle. Dab finger in water and run it along outside edges of dough. Fold ends of each roll over queso and seal tightly to form a ball. Place in prepared Bundt pan and repeat with remaining crescent roll dough. Scatter cubed butter evenly over top. NOTE: there will be some leftover queso dip which you can serve alongside the monkey bread.
- Bake pull apart monkey bread for 30 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the rolls are baked through. Let cool 5 minutes before turning out onto serving platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve pull apart monkey bread with warm queso for dipping.
