Ingredients
  

For the Roll Ups

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter For brushing

Optional Toppings

  • to taste icing for drizzling or dipping For added sweetness

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Begin by making sure your campfire is ready with a solid bed of hot coals for cooking.
  • Open the can of crescent roll dough and carefully unroll it on a clean surface.
  • In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix well until evenly blended.
  • Brush the melted butter over the unrolled crescent rolls evenly.
  • Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the buttered dough.
  • Starting from one end, roll each crescent roll tightly into a log shape. Gently pinch the seams to seal.
  • Insert a skewer or stick into one end of the roll and then carefully slide it down towards the bottom.

Cooking

  • Hold the skewer over the campfire, rotating it occasionally until the roll is golden brown and cooked through (about 8-10 minutes).
  • Once cooked, let the roll cool slightly before drizzling it with icing or enjoying it plain.

Notes

Use a sturdy stick or skewer to prevent the rolls from slipping off. Avoid cooking directly over flames; maintain a balanced distance to prevent burning. Feel free to experiment with additional ingredients like chocolate chips or dried fruits for extra flavor. If you don’t have icing, a simple glaze of powdered sugar and water can create a tasty drizzle. Enjoy while hot for the best texture.
