Tips:
- For the flakiest crescent rolls, use cold butter and keep the dough cold throughout the process.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- To make the crescent rolls ahead of time, shape them and then freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, thaw the crescent rolls overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- For a sweeter crescent roll, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before baking.
- For a savory crescent roll, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, or grated Parmesan cheese before baking.
