Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (350°F if using a nonstick baking sheet).
- Unroll the dough and separate it along the perforations into 8 triangles.
- Starting at the wide end of each triangle, roll it up tightly toward the point.
- Place the rolls about 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Gently curve each roll into a crescent shape.
- Bake for 11 to 14 minutes, until the rolls are golden brown. Serve warm.
Recipe Tips
For extra golden tops, brush the unbaked rolls with a little melted butter or an egg wash.
If using a nonstick baking sheet, reduce oven temperature by 25°F to prevent over-browning.
Let the rolls cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving for best texture.
