Yummy Christmas snack!

Quick and easy!  Very Christmasy!



This is the larger tree - used 2 tubes of crescent rolls.  And below is after putting on a glaze.



Here is a smaller tree we did, with just 1 tube of rolls.  Applied the same glaze.



Here are the instructions.


Unroll a tube of crescent rolls and seal the perforations.  Melt about 1 Tbsp of margarine and brush it on the dough.  Mix cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the butter.  Reroll the crescent rolls and cut.  We cut each tube into 10 sections, but they could be cut a little narrower if you wanted.  Arrange them into the shape of a tree and bake until brown.  Let cool and apply a powdered sugar and milk glaze. 


We colored the glaze green and sprinkled some red sugar on the top. 


My mom applies a thin glaze (uncolored) and puts jarred cherries in the center of the sections for red balls. 


You could get very creative with the decorating, or leave them plain.

  1. We've made these the last few years only I cut them smaller so it was more miniature. Very yummy. I like the bigger ones though.
