      Agreed! I checked mine at 12 minutes and the bottoms were completely burnt black! They were tasty once we cut the bottom half off, though. 🙂

        You should use parchment paper. I use it whenever i bake, and it always turns out great

      FYI: everyone needs an oven thermometer. All ovens bake differently, so your dial says 350, but if oven wasn’t set right it could actually be off degrees in either direction.. I always set timer for least amount of time, then go from there, if it needs to be in there longer . Perfect every time.

    Could I use cinnamon rolls? Do you think they would stay flat enough? Really want to make these but don’t have crescent rolls on hand.

    A little tip on slicing the dough. Use dental floss! Wrap around the dough and pull ends together. Works like a charm. Doesn’t squish the dough. I just found your site and can’t wait to try some of the delish recipes.

    I’ve found with crescent rolls you have to use a really good baking pan (light colored) with parchment to avoid them burning on the bottom, for anyone who was wondering about what pan to use. If I ever use a darker shade of pan it totally will burn crescent rolls every time.

    That said, I used my light baking pan w/ parchment and these turned out perfectly. So delicious. Thank you for the recipe!

      No! Crescent rolls are totally different. They’re lighter and much less dense than biscuits.

    Look delicious. I notice the cream cheese is yellow-ish. What caused this? I always add butter to cr cheese. The addition of fruit also sounds yummy!
