Pecan Pie Crescents
Ingredients:
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 sheet refrigerated crescent roll dough
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine chopped pecans, brown sugar, melted butter, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until the filling is evenly combined.
3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into triangles along the perforated lines.
4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the pecan filling onto the wide end of each crescent dough triangle.
5. Roll up each triangle starting from the wide end towards the point, ensuring the filling is enclosed.
6. Place the crescent rolls on an ungreased baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Tips:
For extra shine, brush the crescents with a little beaten egg before baking.
Chop pecans coarsely for a crunchier texture or finely for a smoother filling.
