❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
We love the simplicity of this recipe, and it’s very versatile, as you could use other chips. So easy to make, it only makes eight, and they come together really quickly. Perfect for a Sunday morning and kids love them too!
SWAPS
You can use peanut butter chips, chocolate chips or toffee chips to make these. Super versatile and mix them up and have a variety. We use the original crescent rolls in this recipe, but honestly, any should work. The Honey Butter version would be delicious in this recipe. Not a fan of nuts, simply leave them off.

⭐TIP
We use a glass to flatten the crescent roll into a circle, you can use can of soup, or something similar if you need. You can also make them a different size if you like. We sometimes add a powdered sugar glaze to the final product.

These were so easy yet delicious and pretty! They look like something you would get at a fancy coffee shop! And they taste great! I am already imaging other combinations of topping ingredients! Thank you!
YAY!! That is wonderful! So glad they were a hit!
Was just wondering if you could use crescent sheet instead of the crescent rolls? They sound delicious like all of your recipes do. Thank you so much!!
Sure! Just cut out circles with a biscuit cutter or something similar and I think that would work just fine.
I was thinking with a crescent sheet you could roll it up and then cut it in sections. That way you would be able to possibly get more than just 8. Maybe not. I actually don’t know because I’ve never seen a sheet of crescent roll dough. Small town, USA, here!
This lady has the greatest recipes. I pin practically every one of them!
Thank you!!
These are DELICIOUS!!!!!
