Ingredients

Crescent Rolls

1 package Pillsbury crescent rolls
3 tablespoons butter softened
¼ cup packed light brown sugar
½ tablespoons ground cinnamon

Glaze

1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Unroll the crescent rolls and lay them out on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
In a small mixing bowl, add the butter, sugar, and cinnamon. Mix together using a spoon until combined. Evenly spread the cinnamon butter mixture over the crescent rolls.
Gently roll up the crescent rolls and place the tip side down on the cookie sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
In a separate small mixing bowl, add the butter, milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Mix with a spoon until smooth and no lumps remain.
Place glaze in a ziplock bag and seal shut. Cut a small piece off of one corner of the bag and drizzle the glaze over the top of the freshly baked crescent rolls.

Notes

Pro Tip: Don’t skip the parchment paper. It is normal for a bit of the butter filling to leak out and you don’t want a mess to clean up on your pan.

Pro Tip: Make sure your butter for this step is softened, not melted.

Pro Tip: Keep a close eye when you are getting close to the bake time as they can go quickly from golden brown to overcooked.
