Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Mix sugar and cinnamon together. On cutting board, roll out crescent roll dough so that it lays flat like a rectangle. Pinch seams together so that there are no wide open cracks.
-
Spread butter over rolls and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over buttered dough.
-
Roll your crescent roll dough back up into a log. Cut log into 5 even pieces. Place flat on baking sheet.
-
Repeat entire process with the other tube of crescent roll dough (you could also do both simultaneously if you have enough counter space).
-
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Mix powdered sugar and milk (or juice) together.
-
When rolls come out of the oven, drizzle glaze over the tops. You can also sprinkle any leftover cinnamon sugar over rolls. Let cool a little and serve.
