Ingredients
- 8 ounce can of Pillsbury Original Crescent Pastry Dough Sheet or Crescent Rolls
- 2 Tbsp very soft unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tsp ground cardamom
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a muffin pan with 6 paper liners.
- Toss the sugar and cardamom together until completely mixed.
- Unroll the tube of crescent roll dough and lay it out flat. Spread with the soft butter and sprinkle evenly with 2 tablespoons of the cardamom sugar (reserve the rest for later.)
- Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the dough in half, lengthwise. Then slice each half into 3 long strips.
- Roll each of the strips up and place, cut side up, into each of the paper liners in your muffin pan.
- Bake for 23-26 minutes until risen and golden brown. Cover loosely with foil toward the end of baking if the cruffins are getting too browned toward the end of baking. Note: to determine if the cruffins are done check the crevices between the layers, if they seem very wet or wobbly when gently pressed, keep baking a little longer. Be careful not to over bake.
- Sprinkle the hot cruffins generously with more cardamom sugar the minute they come out of the oven. Enjoy warm!

Notes
- If you like you can brush your cruffins with melted butter before showering with more cardamom sugar after they come out of the oven.
- You can make smaller cruffins: cut 8 strips instead of 6, and bake for a slightly shorter time.
