Miniature Cinnamon Crescent Rolls

            These cinnamon rolls are so easy to make, they are perfect when you have a bunch of people over for the Holidays. They are super tasty, super easy to make and take very little time.

I usually make these around Christmas time, however, I have been asking myself why. These make a great shareable breakfast at any time of year.

When I first received this recipe, I jumped into it and did not bother to read. Mine turned out really great, but definitely not the way these are. These are actually so cute, some would say they are adorable.

I had, like I said, jumped right in and I made tiny cinnamon rolls. They were tasty, and they were cute.

Frequently Asked Questions:

            Could I make these full sized?

You certainly could. They obviously would not be miniature cinnamon crescents though.

            Can I use less sugar or cinnamon?

Make the cinnamon sugar butter to your taste. This is the only way I can phrase it. If you like less cinnamon, then do not add as much.
