• To make glaze, mix powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until blended together. You can add more or less milk to create desired consistancey.
• Drizzle glaze over warm (but not hot) rolls and enjoy.

Steps:

• Roll out one can of crescent rolls in bottom of 9x13 pan.
• I sprayed pan with cooking spray.
• Cream together: 2 8oz. cream cheese.
• 1 cup sugar.
• 1 teaspoon vanilla.
• Spread this mixture over crescent rolls.
• Lay second tube of crescent rolls over mixture.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter, mix in 3/4 cup sugar,
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and pour over top.
• Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt. In a large saucepan, heat the butter, milk, shortening and water to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add egg yolks; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky). , Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon; set aside. , Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead about six times. Divide dough into four portions. Roll out one portion into a 12-in. circle; spread with 2 tablespoons butter and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar. Cut into 12 wedges. Roll up each from the wide end and place point side down 3 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Curve ends to form crescents. , Repeat with remaining dough, butter and cinnamon-sugar. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. , Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks. Combine the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla; drizzle over warm rolls. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over rolls.

Steps:

• Melt the butter and let it cool for about 15 minutes. Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the 1/4 cup warm water; let the mixture stand for about 10 minutes. (If it does not bubble or increase in volume, the yeast is dead.)
• Place 2 cups of the flour in a large bowl and make a well in the middle. Pour into the well the beaten eggs, yeast mixture, and melted butter and mix together with a large wooden spoon or-if, like me, you love the feel of dough-with your hands. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour, orange zest, and salt and mix thoroughly. The dough will be somewhat soft. Gently pat it into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In a small bowl, toss the raisins with the Grand Marnier. Cover overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking pan with cooking spray or butter, or line it with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, and divide it into 4 equal parts. Dust a work surface with a liberal amount of cinnamon sugar. Using a rolling pin, roll out each portion of dough 1/4 inch thick on the sugar-coated work surface. After each stroke with the rolling pin, flip the dough, adding more cinnamon sugar to the work surface as needed. Cut the dough into 2-inch triangles. (Dough scraps can reformed into a ball and rolled out at least once.) Sprinkle a thin layer of cinnamon sugar on each dough triangle. Scoop 1 teaspoon of the macerated raisins onto the wide end of the triangle; roll up the dough beginning at the wide end. Place the crescents on the prepared baking sheet and bake until they are lightly golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• do it early
• The crescents can be made up to 1 day in advance and kept in an airtight container. Wrap securely and freeze for up to 3 weeks. Unwrap and defrost the day you plan to serve them.

Steps:

• Place flour in a large bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream, egg yolks and vanilla; add to crumb mixture and mix until dough forms a ball. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight., Divide dough into fourths. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 10-in. circle., Whisk egg whites and water; brush over dough. Combine sugar and cinnamon; set aside 1/4 cup in a small bowl. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon-sugar over the dough. Cut each circle into eight wedges., Roll up each wedge from the wide end; roll in reserved cinnamon-sugar. Place point side down 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Curve ends to form crescents., Bake at 375° for 15-17 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Cream butter with 3 tablespoons sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add nuts and flour; mix well.
• Chill dough for easier handling.
• Roll into small pencil thickness logs and shape into crescents.
• Place on greased cookie sheets and bake at 325° for about 18 minutes.
• While cookies are hot, roll in mixture of the confectioner's sugar and cinnamon.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Unroll dough; separate into 16 triangles.
• Spread melted butter on each triangle, Sprinkle 1 cup cinnamon chips evenly over rolls; gently press chips into dough.
• Roll from shortest side of triangle to opposite point.
• Place rolls, point side down, on ungreased cookie sheet; curve into crescent shape.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.
• Drizzle with CINNAMON DRIZZLE.
• Serve warm.
• CINNAMON CHIPS DRIZZLE: Melt remaining 2/3 cup chips with 1-1/2 teaspoons shortening.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, sprinkle the yeast on the warm water and stir until dissolved. Stir in the melted butter. Beat in the eggs and sugar until well blended. Gradually mix in flour. Place dough in an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix together the 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. Divide dough into 6 equal parts. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture into a shallow pan.
• Roll out dough into a circle on a flat surface to 1/8 inch thickness. Press dough into shallow pan and sprinkle again with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Cut dough into 8 wedges, as a pie. Sprinkle raisins on each wedge and roll each wedge, starting from widest to point, as a crescent roll. Place each roll on cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Let crescents stand 15 minutes before baking.
• Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix cinnamon bun topping and melted butter in a small bowl until well combined.
• Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in the microwave for 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
• Separate crescent dough into 16 triangles. Spread 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon mixture onto each triangle and drizzle some of the chocolate on top. Carefully begin to roll starting at shortest side of triangle up to the opposite point. Once rolled, spread another 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon mixture on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets. Whisk together 2 cups sugar and the cinnamon, reserve.
• Beat together 1 cup sugar, margarine, eggs, milk, flour, and baking powder in a large bowl to form a dough. Divide dough into 10 balls. Spread the prepared cinnamon and sugar mixture onto work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll each dough ball out on the cinnamon sugar, forming each into a 14 inch circle. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. Roll each wedge into a crescent, starting at the wide side and rolling toward the tip. Place rolls on prepared baking sheets.
• Bake crescents in preheated oven until set and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
• While crescents are baking, mix together 2 cups sugar, vanilla, 2 cups water, and the cornstarch in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, and cook until thick. Brush glaze on baked crescent rolls. Allow glaze to set for 5 minutes. Drizzle melted chocolate over glazed crescents. If desired, serve warm.
