How To Make
- First, preheat your oven according to the directions on your crescent rolls (mine said 375 F)
- Take your jelly and place it in a pot over low heat. Be sure to stir it every now and then.
The heat is going to "loosen up" the jelly, so that it becomes more spreadable.
- You want too heat your jelly until it is about the consistancy of warm honey.(about 5-15 minutes depending on your stove top) and it should look like this.
- Unroll your crescent rolls, and arrange them like so.
- Take your jelly and spead it onto your crescent rolls.
- Roll your crescents and place onto a greased (use pam!) cookie sheet.
-HOW TO ROLL CRESCENT ROLLS: take the wide end, and roll towards the pointy end.
- Place your crescents into your oven and cook according to the crescent directions (NOTE: I usually subtract 2-3 minutes from the cooking time, becuase the jelly can tend to burn)
- While your crescents are in the oven we are going to make the chocolate drizzle.
- Take a small pot and fill it about 1/4-1/3 full of water (2-3 cups), and place over high heat.
- When the water is boiling place a ceramic or glass (prefably glass) bowl on to of the pot (NOTE: Make sure the bowl DOES NOT touch the water)
- Take your chocolate and place it in the bowl.
- We've created a double boiler, which will melt, but not burn the chocolate.Once the chocolate begins to melt, make sure to stir it.
- When the chocolate has melted turn the heat down to medium-low. (Optional: I like to stir in a tablespoon of milk, for a more creamier milk)
- Remove your crescents from the oven, and place on your cooling rack.
- Dont they look Beautiful!
- Ok, now take your chocolate, give it a good stir, and with your wisk "drizzle" the melted chocolate over the crescents.
- Allow them to cool, and enjoy.
NOTES
- For an added touch take some slivered almonds, and place them ontop of the crescents before cooking
- Use white & milk chocolate to make them look extra special
- Make more then you think you'll need, becuase you'll eat more then you tought you would.
