 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1/3
 cup raisins
1/4
 teaspoon grated lemon peel, if desired
Icing

DIRECTIONS

1 Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough and separate into 8 triangles. 2 In small bowl, mix raisins and lemon peel; spoon about 1 teaspoon raisin mixture onto short side of each triangle. Gently wrap corners of dough over filling and roll to opposite point; pinch to seal. Place point side down on ungreased cookie sheet. 3 Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet; place on wire rack. Cool 10 minutes. 4 In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and enough milk until smooth and drizzling consistency. With spoon, drizzle icing in cross shape on top of each bun.
Add a little extra color and a twist of flavor by substituting diced dried fruit and raisin mixture for the raisins.
