Crescent Cinnamon Rolls

By

These are super simple to put together, even on a weekday. Most of us probably already have all the ingredients in our kitchens right now. I thought about omitting the glaze, but since I had everything I needed for it I just decided to make it. Trust me, you want the glaze. You don't HAVE to have it, but I was definitely gad it was there. This has absolutely become a keeper and something that I will be making often (I've already made it twice now). So glad I found it.

Ingredients

  • Filling:
  • 1 tube crescent rolls, unrolled and separated (8 count)
  • ........................
  • 6 tablespoons butter,softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ........................
  • Glaze:
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered Sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place the unrolled and separated crescent rolls on a greased cookie sheet. In a small bowl for the filling, mix together the 6 tablespoons of butter, sugar and cinnamon. Evenly spread the cinnamon butter over the crescent rolls and roll up. Place tip side down on the cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.


2. In a small bowl for the glaze, mix together the 2 tablespoons of butter, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Place in a zip lock bag and snip a tiny corner off. Drizzle the glaze over the cinnamon rolls.
