Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly flour a clean surface and unroll the crescent roll dough. Separate the dough into individual triangles along the perforated edges.
Place about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling near the wide end of each triangle, being careful not to overfill to prevent leaking.
Starting at the wide end, gently roll up each triangle, tucking the cherry filling inside as you roll. Place the rolled crescents seam-side down on an ungreased baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly runny. Add a tiny bit more milk if the glaze is too thick.
Once the crescent rolls are finished baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes.
Drizzle the glaze over the slightly warm crescent rolls using a spoon or fork. Serve warm and enjoy!
