I made these cinnamon crescent rolls yesterday and they were such a yummy treat. The boys loved them and were begging for seconds. These were seriously very easy to make and it’s the perfect treat to let your kids help out with.
With this recipe, you can have a yummy dessert prepared and cooked in 20 minutes. They’re perfectly flaky, with a delicious cinnamon sugar filling and sweet glaze. Similar flavor to a cinnamon roll, but easier and more flaky!
Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the crescent dough and lay on top of the baking sheet.
Mix together butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Using a spoon, spread the filling on top of crescent dough. Then roll up the crescents and place on baking sheet with seams down.
Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Then once the crescents have slightly cooled, drizzle glaze on top. Serve and enjoy!
