Have made these twice now, they are easy and very yummy! Anyone one make them. Instead of making crescent rolls, I spooned the batter into muffin tins, let them rise a seciond time and made dinner rolls. Much easier and less time consuming, just as good .

The guys all loved these rolls. They are sweet but not overly sweet. They would be the perfect base for a breakfast danish filled with cream cheese and drizzled with icing. They were a nice accompaniment to our dinner and unfortunately there were none left over to try the breakfast idea! Thanks Carolinafan!
