Dough and Filling
- 1 can Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish thoroughly to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and carefully pinch the seams together to form a single rectangular sheet of dough, ensuring no gaps.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Brush the melted butter evenly over the entire surface of the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture uniformly over the buttered dough.
- Roll and Slice: Tightly roll the dough from one end into a log shape, then slice the rolled log into approximately 1-inch thick pieces to create individual rolls.
- Arrange and Bake: Arrange the sliced rolls in the greased baking dish, spacing them slightly apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the rolls turn golden brown and cooked through.
- Prepare and Apply Glaze: While the rolls bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to create a smooth glaze. After baking, let the rolls cool just a bit to avoid melting the glaze, then drizzle it generously over the warm cinnamon roll bars.
Notes
- For extra gooey centers, use a bit more brown sugar and cinnamon in the filling.
- You can substitute milk with cream or almond milk for different flavor profiles.
- Ensure the crescent roll dough seams are well pinched to prevent filling leakage during baking.
- Serve warm for best taste and texture.
