A sophisticated take on monkey bread for your holiday soirées. I see potential here for other combinations of soft breads and baked dips.

Have a nice Thanksgiving!
Oh yeah, and there's a video there too.
I'm definitely giving this a try. It looks fabulous. A surprise inclusion to the festivities.
Thanks.
Cheers,

It got me thinking about a slow cooker Reuben dip someone brought to a holiday party some years ago. Apparently, I didn't get the recipe because I couldn't find it in my notebooks. But when I did a search, not only did I find lots of recipes, more than one of them were for a skillet dip arrangement like the one above. Of course, I'd rather make my own bread dough, and I'd make it a rye.

Apparently, skillet dips are a thing (at least with Pillsbury). A few of the others I came across:
Cranberry-Cream Cheese Skillet Dip Recipe - Pillsbury.com
Skillet Queso Dip with Taco Biscuit Bombs Recipe - Pillsbury.com
The queso dip I'd pair with JH's Corn Bread (Bread 2nd ed, pg 143). It's a poolish bread.
And then there's artichoke dip.
Possibilities are many :)

I've taken the time to go through the linked recipes. Very keen to try the Skillet Queso dip. I'm also going to make JH's Corn Bread to go with it. As I understand the terminology, your biscuits are what we would call scones. All of them look delicious.
Cheers,
Gavin.
Have you ever made the corn bread? I rather like it and think it might make a good crust for taco pizza as well, or chicken-bacon-ranch with Monterey Jack. But that's a different subject.
Our biscuits and scones are similar (we have both), but scones are sweeter. Those Pillsbury Grands are the kind that come in a pop tube. Fun to pop and convenient to bake, but homemade are better! And yeasted bread will be best, I think. Certainly nicer looking :)
All the best,

Very nice idea for a holiday dinner party.
Hope you have a great Thanksgiving next weekend Debra!

Will you be celebrating American Thanksgiving with us while you're in the States?
Hope you're having a nice time :)
