Description

Pillowy crescent rolls become a delightful cinnamon-sugar pizza in this quick dessert. Sweet layers meld with buttery pastry, offering a simple yet irresistible treat you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz/226 g) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsps butter, melted
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Dough Preparation: Stretch crescent roll dough across a baking sheet, meticulously pressing triangular sections to form a seamless circular base.
  2. Butter Application: Lavishly brush the entire dough surface with melted butter, ensuring comprehensive and uniform coverage.
  3. Cinnamon-Sugar Coating: Thoroughly mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon, then generously sprinkle the aromatic blend across the buttered surface, creating an even, decadent layer.
  4. Baking Process: Transfer the prepared pizza into a preheated oven at 375°F, allowing the crust to transform into a crisp, golden-brown delicacy over approximately 10-12 minutes.
  5. Glaze Creation: While pizza bakes, whisk powdered sugar with milk and vanilla extract to develop a silky, smooth glaze with a delicate sheen.
  6. Finishing Touches: Once baked, allow the pizza to cool briefly, then artfully drizzle the prepared glaze across the warm surface, creating elegant patterns that elevate both visual and gustatory experience.
  7. Serving: Slice into wedges and serve immediately, capturing the pinnacle of temperature and textural perfection.

Notes

  • Seal Dough Seamlessly: Press crescent roll triangles tightly together to prevent separation during baking, creating a smooth, unified base.
  • Butter Battle: Use melted butter generously and evenly to guarantee a crispy, golden crust that enhances the sweet cinnamon coating.
  • Sugar Sprinkle Strategy: Mix cinnamon and sugar thoroughly before sprinkling to ensure balanced flavor in every single bite.
  • Glaze Game Changer: Whisk the powdered sugar glaze to a smooth, drizzle-friendly consistency that adds a delightful sweet finish without overwhelming the dessert.
