Cinnamon Crescents image

I've made homemade cinnamon rolls before from my yeast roll recipe. I decided to try to make them using canned crescent roll dough and they turned out delicious. Now, it's a snap to have fresh hot cinnamon rolls for breakfast or anytime without the wait.

I'm not sure what happened, but my cinnamon crescents didn't turn out as flaky as I expected.

I used a different type of cream cheese than the recipe called for and it turned out fine.

For a more decadent treat, I added a cream cheese glaze to these cinnamon crescents. It was the perfect finishing touch!

I've tried many cinnamon crescent recipes, but this is hands down the best. The dough is soft and fluffy, and the filling is just the right amount of sweet and cinnamony.

These cinnamon crescent rolls were a hit at my family gathering! The dough was a breeze to work with and the filling was perfectly balanced. They came out of the oven golden brown and flaky, and the aroma was heavenly.
