Make the Cruffins

Cup of Yum
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
2. Lightly grease a 12-hole muffin tray with butter, oil or cooking spray.
3. In a bowl, combine the white sugar, light brown sugar and cinnamon for the Cruffin filling. Set aside.
4. Unroll the dough and cut it into squares along the perforated lines between each pair of triangles. In other words, instead of cutting into individual triangles, leave two triangles connected to form a square.
5. On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out each square into a slightly larger rectangle.Aim for a rough measurement of 30cm x 25cm (12" x 9"). See note 1
6. If you come across any large perforated holes in the dough, simply pinch them shut with your fingertips. It doesn't have to be perfect.
7. Spread approximately a tablespoon of softened butter evenly over the entire square.
8. Sprinkle two tablespoons (or as much as you like) of cinnamon sugar across the layer of butter.
9. Starting from the long end of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough up into a log shape.
10. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the log lengthwise in half. Now, you should have two long halves, each revealing multiple layers of dough.
11. With the revealed layers facing upwards, begin at one end and roll the strip into a tight spiral. As you approach the end of the spiral, tuck the loose end slightly underneath the ball to prevent the Cruffin from unravelling during baking.
12. Gently place the spiral into a muffin hole, ensuring it sits neatly. Repeat the process for the remaining dough until you fill all 12 muffin holes.
13. Place the Cruffins in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown, puffy and flaky.
14. Let the Cruffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Carefully remove them by sliding a knife around the edges to loosen any sticky sugar that may have glued them to the sides.

Finishing touches

1. In a bowl, combine the white sugar and ground cinnamon to roll the Cruffins in.
2. While the Cruffins are still warm, roll them in the sugar mixture on all sides. Give them a light tap on the side of the bowl to remove any excess sugar.Enjoy fresh with a cup of tea or coffee.
