Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can (8 ounces/226 grams) refrigerated crescent rolls
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Topping and Glaze Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Carefully spread crescent roll dough across a baking sheet, gently pressing triangular pieces together to create a cohesive circular foundation with no visible seams.
- Generously coat the entire dough surface with a smooth layer of melted butter, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Thoroughly combine granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a mixing bowl, creating a fragrant spice blend.
- Liberally dust the buttered surface with the cinnamon-sugar mixture, allowing an even distribution that covers every inch of the dough.
- Position the prepared pizza into a preheated oven set at 375°F, allowing the crust to transform into a golden-brown delicacy.
- While the pizza bakes, craft a silky glaze by whisking powdered sugar with milk and vanilla extract until achieving a luxuriously smooth consistency.
- After removing the pizza from the oven, permit a brief cooling period to allow the crust to set and stabilize.
- Elegantly drizzle the prepared glaze across the warm surface, creating artistic patterns that enhance both visual appeal and flavor profile.
- Slice the cinnamon-sugar pizza into wedges and serve immediately to capture the optimal temperature and textural experience.
Notes

- Ensure crescent roll triangles are pressed tightly together to create a seamless pizza-like base without gaps.
