Super Simple Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
- 8 oz Can Pillsbury crescent rolls dough
- ⅓ Cup finely chopped pecans
- ⅓ Cup packed brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 ½ Tablespoons butter softened
- ½ Cup powdered sugar
- 1 to 2 Tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees and grease 8-inch square baking dish or round cast iron skillet. The skillet makes for a great texture and presentation.
- Set aside the ½ tablespoon butter, powdered sugar and milk, these will be used for the glaze
- In a small bowl, mix together pecans, brown sugar, butter and cinnamon
- Unroll the can of dough into 1 large rectangle and firmly press together the perforations to seal so the filling doesn't seep out later. Spread the filling evenly over the entire rectangle of dough.
- Roll the sheet up lengthwise (along the long edge) into a log
- Using a very sharp knife slice the log into 8 even sections. You can do this easily by first cutting the log in half, then cutting each half in half and finally cutting each of these four sections in half
- Place rolls evenly in baking disk or skillet leaving roughly an inch or so between them. The rolls will expand as they cook and join together a bit. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown
- While the rolls bake combine glaze ingredients in a small bowl (½ tablespoon butter, powdered sugar and milk)
- Add enough milk for desired drizzling consistency and drizzle over the warm rolls and serve!
