1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Unroll the crescent dough and brush it evenly with the melted butter. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the cinnamon sugar.
Shape and Bake:
Roll the dough into a log, starting from the wide end of the triangles. Slice the log into 8 equal pieces. Place the slices cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Prepare the Glaze (optional):
While the crescents are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust the milk as needed to reach your desired consistency.
Glaze and Serve:
Remove the baked crescents from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle the glaze over the warm crescents if desired.
Serve: Serve the Cinnamon Roll Crescents warm, either plain or drizzled with glaze, for a sweet and satisfying treat.
