I do make homemade from scratch cinnamon rolls several times a year, but as we all know, they take several hours to make so I came up with this recipe a long time ago using crescent roll dough and they taste amazing. They take less than 20 minutes to make. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
1 can of crescent roll dough sheets
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
3 – 4 tablespoons of butter, softened
1/2 cup of powdered sugar
2 – 3 teaspoons of milk or heavy whipping cream
Preheat the oven 375 degrees.

Roll the crescent dough out into a rectangle and cover the dough with the softened butter leaving about a 1/2 inch clear on one of the long sides.

In a small bowl, add the brown sugar and cinnamon and mix together until it is well combined.

Sprinkle the dough with this sugar mixture, still leaving the 1/2 inch of the dough clear and push the cinnamon mixture down using a spoon or your hands.
