1

Heat oven to 375°F.
2

Separate dough into 8 triangles. In small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon-sugar on each triangle. Place 1 candy bar at shortest side of triangle. Loosely roll up, starting at shortest side and rolling to opposite point. Place point side down on ungreased cookie sheet; curve into crescent shape. Sprinkle with about 1/8 teaspoon additional cinnamon-sugar.
3

Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

Expert Tips

If you don't have miniature candy bars, use 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. Just use a tablespoon of chips for each crescent roll.
For a little extra kick, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
