Quickie Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

• 8 ounces crescent roll dough, 8 roll tube
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon orange juice

Directions:

1. Unroll dough in one long rectangle and press to seal perforations.
2. Combine cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over dough.
3. Roll up jelly roll style (like a log) starting from the short end and pinch seam to seal.
4. Using a serrated knife slice into 4 equal slices. (I use unwaxed dental floss threading underneath the 'log' and then crossing the ends above the 'log'(floss makes an O around the dough, floss ends form a V) Pull ends to draw floss through to cut dough. Makes a cleaner cut).
5. Place rolls pinched side down in un-greased muffin tin.
6. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes or until brown. Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to wire rack.
7. Mix powdered sugar and orange juice to make a thin glaze. Drizzle over the warm rolls and serve.
