We have a tradition of making cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning while we open presents. I always buy the stuff in the tube because I'm not getting up early to make them from scratch... not that I can make them from scratch anyway. LOL! I decided to experiment with crescent rolls this year and give a little of my own homemade touch to them. They were spectacular and I loved them even more than the cinnamon rolls from a tube. My favorite part was the added crunch from the pecans. Pecans are healthy so I guess I can feel less guilty eating my roll with all the butter and sugar. :)
Ingredients:
1 tub of crescent rolls (makes 8 large rolls)
1/3 cup butter or margarine (at room temperature)
2 tsp cinnamon powder
1/3 cup brown sugar
2oz of pecans chopped
Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1-2 Tbs warm water or milk
1-2 Tbs softened butter
Directions:



Take all glaze ingredients and mix together and set aside. Use the smaller amounts suggested for the glaze first and adjust as needed.
Bake according to crescent package instructions: Allow to cool for a few minutes and drizzle with glaze. Serve warm. Enjoy.

I think this recipe was destined for me. I always wimp out with cinnamon rolls due to the rise time. What a great way to wake up!

This is a great way to kick up the good ol' crescent roll! I think I would like to get some of the beauty jars to make sugar scrubs!

Genius! These are great gifts but I am pretty sure I would eat most of them before they were wrapped up.
ReplyDeleteShame on me! I've been using cresent rolls for...hmm more than 5 years, yet I'm making the same old stuff! You are brilliant! I have 2 rolls in the fridge. I'll definitely try this tomorrow or Sunday!!
ReplyDeleteGreat way to spiff up crescent rolls--I love this! It's been fun doing Christmas Week with you--perhaps we'll do it again. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're planning to buy a big freezer so I think I'd like something to help me store things easily in it so perhaps the Rectangular Snap-Lock boxes or other heavy plastic containers.
ReplyDeleteWat a wonderful crescent rolls,prefect for this festive season.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all I love the new look, and those cinnamon pecan rolls would be gone in a heartbeat. Thank goodness they come together quickly. Guess I should start stocking up on cresecent roll dough.
