Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This high temperature ensures that the crescent rolls bake quickly and become crispy on the outside, while staying soft and fluffy inside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cold butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and flour. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, mix the ingredients until they form a crumbly texture. These crumbs will add the perfect sweet crunch to your pizza.
- Unroll the can of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls and separate the dough into 8 triangles. Arrange them on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving a little space between each triangle for even baking. Sprinkle the crumb mixture generously over the dough, making sure each piece is evenly covered.
- Bake the crescent rolls in the preheated oven for 8 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges. The sweet aroma of cinnamon and sugar will fill your kitchen as they bake.
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth. If you prefer a thicker glaze, add a little more powdered sugar. If you want a thinner consistency, add more milk, a teaspoon at a time.
- Once the rolls are baked and have cooled slightly, cut them into smaller triangles if desired. Drizzle the glaze generously over the Sugar Crumb Crispies. Serve warm, and enjoy the delightful combination of buttery dough, crunchy sugar topping, and sweet vanilla glaze.
Notes
Use cold butter for the crumb topping:Cold butter creates that perfect crumbly texture, giving your pizza a crunchy bite. Don’t skip this step!
Don’t overbake the crescent rolls:Keep an eye on the rolls while they bake. You want them to be golden and crisp, but overbaking could make them too dry.
Adjust the glaze consistency to your liking:If you prefer a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar. For a thinner drizzle, increase the amount of milk.
