Recipe: Texas-Style Cinnamon-Sugar Pizza with Crescent Rolls

Ingredients:

• Sugar Crumb Crispies:
• • 1/4 cup cold butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • Dash of salt
  • 1/2 cup flour
• 1 can Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

Glaze:

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp softened butter
• 1-1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 to 1-1/2 tbsp milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a medium bowl, cut the cold butter into the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and flour until the mixture forms crumbs.
3. On an ungreased cookie sheet, separate the crescent roll dough into 8 triangles. Sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly over the dough triangles.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
5. While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, blend together the powdered sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth. If the glaze is too runny, add more powdered sugar until it reaches your desired consistency.
6. Once the rolls are baked and cooled, cut them into smaller triangles if desired.
7. Drizzle the glaze over the Sugar Crumb Crispies and serve.
