I wasn't to fond of this. I think I'll stick with my original recipe. I didn't like the flavor the biscuits in the dish.

My mom made this recipe every Christmas morning when I was a kid and I was surprised to see it here. Now she makes it at other times as well. It's delicious, rich and a crowd-pleaser. It's buttery, brown-sugary and caramel-y, and you forget that those are actually crescent rolls in there! A really great treat for breakfast, brunch or a coffee break.
