Unroll crescent rounds into strips. Brush each strip with almond mixture. Using sharp knife, make cuts 1 inch apart on one long side of each strip, cutting 3/4 of the way toward the opposite side. Beginning at one end, roll up each strip. Gently spread top open, forming petals. Place petal side up in muffin cups.
