Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a small saucepan, melt the margarine over low heat. Once melted, use 2 tablespoons of the margarine to coat the bottom and sides of an ungreased 12-cup fluted tube pan.
3
Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the chopped nuts evenly over the bottom of the prepared pan.
4
In the same saucepan, add the remaining chopped nuts, brown sugar, and water to the melted margarine. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, remove it from the heat and set aside.
5
Open the cans of Hungry Jack biscuits, and separate the dough into 20 biscuits. Cut each biscuit in half and roll them into balls.
6
Place 20 biscuit balls in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared pan.
7
Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the biscuit balls, followed by another layer of the biscuit balls and the remaining caramel sauce.
8
Bake the coffee cake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and is cooked through.
9
Once baked, invert the pan onto a piece of wax paper immediately to release the cake. Allow it to cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
