Ingredients
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough (sheet or rolls with seams pressed together)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
ยฝ teaspoon vanilla extract
โ cup packed light brown sugar
1ยฝ tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 oz softened cream cheese
2 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
ยฝ cup powdered sugar
ยฝ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 to 2 teaspoons milk, as needed for consistency
Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
1-First: preheat your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC) and line a 10-12 inch round pizza pan or baking sheet with parchment paper. This step helps everything bake evenly and prevents sticking, making cleanup a breeze.
2-Next: unroll the crescent dough onto the pan, pressing the seams together to form a solid sheet. Stretch and press the dough into a round shape about 10-11 inches wide, then fold the outer edge to create a raised crust border for that pizza look.
3-Mix the melted butter and vanilla extract, then brush it evenly over the dough, including the crust edge. This adds a rich, buttery flavor that makes the base irresistible.
4-Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle it evenly over the buttered dough. This creates the signature sweet topping that everyone loves.
5-Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is puffed, golden, and the sugar topping lightly bubbles. Keep an eye on it to get that perfect golden finish.
6-Let the pizza cool for about 10 minutes before adding the glaze. To make the glaze, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy, then add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and mix well.
7-Add the milk one teaspoon at a time until the glaze is thick but pipeable. Transfer the glaze to a small bag, snip a corner, and pipe it in a zigzag pattern on the cooled pizza.
8-After the glaze sets, dust the top with powdered sugar using a fine mesh strainer. Finally, cut into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature for the best taste.
