Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, very soft
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • For the glaze: ½ cup powdered sugar, 1 tbsp milk, ¼ tsp vanilla extract, pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  2. Unroll crescent dough sheets, pinch perforations closed if needed, spread with butter, and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Roll each sheet tightly into a log.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice logs into rounds, place in greased 9-inch pan, and bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden.
  4. Whisk glaze ingredients, drizzle over warm rolls, and serve.

Notes

Let the rolls rest 5 minutes before glazing so the drizzle stays on top instead of melting into the dough. For even slices, use unflavored dental floss instead of a knife.
