Description

These Sweet Cinnamon Twists are a quick, delicious treat that combines soft, buttery dough with a sugary cinnamon filling. Perfect for breakfast or a snack, they’re easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser!


Ingredients

  • 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface and separate the dough into triangles along the perforated lines.
  3. Brush each dough triangle with melted butter.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the buttered dough triangles.
  5. Roll each triangle from the wide end to the point, forming a twist shape.
  6. Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
  8. While the twists are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
  9. Once the twists are out of the oven, drizzle the glaze over them while they are still warm.
  10. Serve and enjoy!
