Only 6 Ingredients Needed

  • Light Brown Sugar– dark brown will work too.
  • Butter– I use salted butter, but you can use unsalted butter and add a pinch of salt.
  • Cinnamon– It’s not cinnamon rolls without cinnamon!
  • Crescent Rolls– I use Pillsbury Cresent Roll Dough.
  • Confectioners’ sugar– for the glaze.
  • Heavy Cream– half-and-half can be used instead.

Cinnamon Roll Crescents Recipe Tip

Best eaten fresh from the oven but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature. You can warm them in the microwave for a few seconds before serving to freshen them up some.
