How to Make S’mores Crescent Rolls

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

First things first! Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This ensures that your rolls bake evenly and don’t stick.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

Unroll your crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Make sure to handle it gently so you don’t tear any pieces. The triangles will serve as little pockets for all that gooey goodness!

Step 3: Fill with Goodness

Sprinkle chocolate chips, mini vegan marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs onto each triangle. Don’t hold back—this is where the magic happens! The combination of flavors will melt together beautifully during baking.

Step 4: Roll Them Up

Starting from the wide end, roll up each triangle to form a crescent shape. Be sure to tuck in those edges so none of the delicious filling escapes while they bake!

Step 5: Bake Until Golden

Place your rolls on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with melted butter if desired. This gives them an irresistible golden finish! Bake for about 10–12 minutes or until they’re golden brown and puffed up beautifully.

Step 6: Dust & Serve Warm

Let them cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar if you’d like. Serve these warm and watch everyone’s faces light up as they take their first bite!

Enjoy making these delightful S’mores Crescent Rolls; they’re sure to become a favorite in your home!

Pro Tips for Making S’mores Crescent Rolls

These delightful treats are so easy to whip up, and a few simple tips can make your S’mores Crescent Rolls even more delicious!

• Use refrigerated crescent roll dough: This is key for achieving that perfect flaky texture. The ready-made dough saves time and creates a light, airy roll.

• Don’t overstuff the rolls: While it might be tempting to pile on the chocolate and marshmallows, keep the filling modest. This helps prevent spills during baking and ensures each roll cooks evenly.

• Experiment with fillings: Feel free to get creative! You can add peanut butter or nut butter for a unique twist on the classic s’mores flavor, or use different types of vegan chocolate to customize the taste.

• Allow them to cool slightly before serving: Letting the rolls rest for a few minutes after baking helps them set and makes them easier to handle. Plus, they’ll still be warm and gooey inside!

• Serve with dipping sauces: Consider serving these rolls with a side of chocolate sauce or melted peanut butter for an extra indulgent experience.
