How to Make Pecan Crescent Twists
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Unroll one (8 ounce) can of crescent rolls and separate into 8 rectangles, pressing perforations to seal.
- Melt 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) of butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Brush each crescent rectangle evenly with 3 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the pecan mixture onto each rectangle.
- Gently roll up each rectangle starting from the long side, then twist into a loose spiral.
- Cut 6 shallow, 1/2-inch long diagonal slits into each roll.
- Gently shape each roll into a ring, pressing the ends together to seal.
- Place the twists on a lightly greased baking sheet.
- Brush the twists with the remaining 3 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the twists are baking, whisk together 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1-2 tablespoons of milk or cream until smooth and pourable.
- Drizzle the powdered sugar glaze over the warm pecan crescent twists and serve immediately.
