  • 1 package crescent roll dough
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.
  3. Cut each triangle into three equal strips and place them on a plate.
  4. Melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl and use a brush to coat each strip.
  5. In a small bowl combine the brown sugar and cinnamon then sprinkle the mixture over the buttered strips.
  6. Roll each strip into a tight spiral and place the bites seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the bites are golden brown.
  8. While the bites are baking whisk together the powdered sugar milk and vanilla to make the glaze.
  9. Remove the bites from the oven and let them cool for 2 minutes then drizzle with the glaze.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days
  • Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to restore crispiness
  • Customize by adding chopped nuts or a pinch of cardamom to the cinnamon sugar mixture
