I found a recipe for quick crescent roll cinnamon rolls. I tried it didn't love it so I mixed it up and made it better. This is much more healthy (relatively speaking) than the first recipe. (From Brown Eyed Baker)
2 cans Pillsbury Crescent Rolls - chill until use
1 stick butter - divided - 1/2 melted, 1/2 softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
Vanilla Glaze
2 tablespoons butter melted
4 tablespoons heavy cream OR 3 tablespoons milk + 1 tablespoon melted butter (room temp)
2 cups sifted confectioners sugar
Preheat oven to 350'. Melt 1/2 stick butter in a 9 x 13 glass pan - I did it in the microwave. Spread it around so it covers the bottom of the pan. Roll out crescent rolls and pinch seams (hard!) to seal them. Spread a thin layer of the 1/2 cube softened butter on both rectangles. Combine brown sugar, sugar and cinnamon. Spoon half on to each crescent rectangle. Roll up carefully - mine came apart at the middle seam but I just kept rolling. Cut each rolled up piece into 7 or 8 pieces. Space evenly in 9 x 13 pan. Bake for 20-22 minutes until the tops are nicely browned. Let them cool for about 5 minutes and then drizzle glaze over them. Serve warm. They are actually pretty good at room temp too.
Sounds delish! I was thinking about trying these and am glad you went first :)
