Ingredients
- 3 tubes 8 oz each refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- nonstick spray for greasing
- melted butter for brushing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.

- Spread 2 tablespoons of softened butter evenly over the dough.
- Mix granulated sugar with ground cinnamon in a bowl and sprinkle generously over the buttered dough.

- Coil each half into spirals with cut sides facing out and place each in a muffin cup.
- Repeat the process with remaining dough tubes to fill all muffin cups.
