Mama's Mini-Cinnis
2 8 ounce cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
6 tablespoons butter, softened
⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
¼ cup pecans, chopped
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
⅔ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk or cream
¼ teaspoon almond or vanilla extract
⅛ teaspoon salt
Unroll crescent rolls and separate each dough portion along center perforation to form 4 rectangles. Press diagonal perforations to seal.
Stir together butter and next 4 ingredients. Spread evenly over 1 side of each rectangle. Roll up jellyroll fashion, starting at long end. Gently cut each log into 6 (1" thick) slices, using a serated knife. Place rolls 1/4" apart into 2 8" greased cake pans.
Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden. Cool 5 to 10 minutes.
Stir together powdered sugar and remaining ingredients. Drizzle over warm rolls.
Note: to make slicing easier, place unbaked rolls on baking sheet and freeze for about 10 minutes.
