Crescent Roll Cinnamon Twists (Print Version)

Buttery crescent dough twisted with cinnamon-sugar and baked to golden perfection, finished with an optional sweet glaze.

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
02 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
04 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
05 - 1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional)
06 - 2 tablespoons milk (optional)

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Preheat to 375°F (190°C).
02 - Unroll the crescent roll dough and pinch seams together to form a rectangle.
03 - Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons cinnamon in a bowl.
04 - Apply 1/4 cup melted butter evenly over the dough.
05 - Evenly sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture over the buttered dough.
06 - Slice into 1-inch strips, twist, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
07 - Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
08 - Whisk together 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons milk until smooth.
09 - Drizzle glaze over warm twists and serve immediately.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Seal the seams of the crescent roll dough to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
02 - Keep an eye on the twists while baking to avoid dryness. They should be golden brown but still soft.
03 - These twists are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven while they’re warm and gooey.
