Monkey Bread (bread machine)

I think everyone has made Monkey Bread, there are many, many recipes to be found, often using frozen bread dough.  This is basically caramel rolls without rolling (I believe I have mentioned that I take the easy way out if possible :).  The bread is nisu bread, for you non-Finnish people, that translates to sweet bread.  I'm not crazy about the lack of flavor you get when just using a basic bread dough.  By the way, you can use this dough to make nisu breads also, or if you want to put the time into it (groan), you can make real caramel rolls or cinnamon rolls.
