Yield: 20 rolls

Ingredients

  • 1  (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  sugar
  • 1/2  teaspoon  ground cinnamon
  • 1/3  cup  sifted powdered sugar
  • 1  teaspoon  milk
  • 1  drop vanilla extract

Preparation

Unroll crescent roll dough, and separate into 4 rectangles; pinch seams to seal.

Stir together sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over rectangles.

Roll up, jellyroll fashion, starting with a long side; press edges to seal. Cut each log into 5 slices, and place in a lightly greased 8-inch round cakepan.

Bake at 350° for 12 minutes.

Combine powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla, stirring until smooth; drizzle over warm cinnamon rolls.

My family loves these tiny cinnamon rolls. They are fun to make and a great "semi-homemade" breakfast treat, better than the Pillsbury cinnamon rolls from a can and take just a little bit of effort. I have also altered this recipe by substituting Nutella spread for the cinnamon sugar and dusted them with powdered sugar instead of the icing--like tiny chocolate croissant bites. Yum!11/23/09

These were really good and easy to make. I don't think they're the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had (it's hard to beat Cinnabon...) but they were great finger-food breakfast snacks for Sunday School. I didn't alter the recipe and I would definitely make them again10/01/09
