Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into 4 rectangles by pinching together the perforations.
Brush each rectangle with melted butter, leaving a small border around the edges.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon.
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered rectangles. Top with chopped nuts.
Starting from one of the shorter sides, roll each rectangle into a tight log and pinch the seam to seal.
Cut each log into 4 equal slices to create 16 rolls in total.
Place the rolls into the prepared muffin tin, cut side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden and puffy.
While the rolls bake, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes. Drizzle the glaze on top of each roll.
Serve warm and enjoy!
