Description
Imagine a warm, flaky crust, generously coated with sweet cinnamon sugar, then drizzled with a dreamy vanilla icing that melts perfectly into every bite. This Cinnamon Sugar Crescent Roll Pizza is a 25-minute ‘lazy baker’ miracle that looks and tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- For the Vanilla Icing:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk (any kind works)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prep and Preheat: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- Build the Base: Arrange crescent roll triangles with wider ends facing the center to form a circle. Overlap the wider ends slightly and gently press the seams together to create a solid pizza crust.
- Butter and Sugar: Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough. Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered surface.
- Bake: Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and puffed. Remove and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
- Mix Icing: While the pizza cools, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Drizzle and Serve: Drizzle the vanilla icing generously over the warm pizza. Cut into wedges and serve immediately!
Notes
Resist the urge to assemble the dough too far in advance, as it can become soggy before baking. For a clean drizzle, put the icing in a small plastic bag and snip a tiny corner off to pipe it. If you want an extra crunch, add a handful of chopped pecans before baking.
