4 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 cup slivered almonds finely chopped
  • 4 ounces almond paste finely mashed
  • 6 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 packages crescent rolls 8 ounces each unbaked
  • 1 stick butter at room temperature
  • cooking spray
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 1 tablespoon whole milk

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir almonds, almond paste, brown sugar, and cinnamon to combine. Set aside.
  2. 2
    Working on a sheet of parchment, unroll 1 package of crescent-roll dough to a rectangle and smooth seams. Evenly spread half the butter over dough and then sprinkle with half the almond mixture. Beginning on one long side, tightly roll up dough. Slice into 6 pieces. Repeat with remaining dough, butter, and almond mixture.
  3. 3
    Spray two 6-cavity muffin tins with cooking spray. Place a bun in each cavity and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  4. 4
    Remove pans from oven and let cool for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Transfer buns to a wire rack, drizzle with icing, and serve immediately.
