I didn’t realize that making my own would be fairly simple. I’ll give this recipe a try the next time I inevitably forget the crescents on my list. :)

I’d love to try this. I bet they are SO much better than what I usually use. (And I actually like what I usually use!)

Thanks for the tips! Yeah, I usually use the cans for quick recipes too, but I’m thinking if I made this ahead and froze it, then I could just pull it out of the freezer to thaw the day of. Then while it rises I could work on other parts of the meal (or dishes, since there are always dishes). Still not as quick and convenient as cans, but it ends up being cheaper, and probably at least slightly healthier.

In reply to Jeriann.

I’ve never frozen this dough specifically, because I always need two or three times MORE rolls than this recipe makes. ;) But I have certainly frozen other doughs before. I would recommend splitting the dough into thirds, wrapping each third tightly in plastic wrap and putting the wrapped dough into a freezer bag. Then, when ready to use, I’d thaw the frozen dough overnight in the fridge and then, once thawed completely, roll out and cut into the triangles and let rise. From my experience, you could skip the first rising “step” in this case.

As far as using the dough for a base for a casserole, I suppose you could use this dough for any recipe that called for the refrigerated dough. I just love these rolls enough that I just use them for the rolls. They aren’t exactly “quick” …and I think of things like crescent-wrapped chicken or hot dogs as a quick meal, so I just grab the canned stuff. :)

Does the dough freeze well? It doesn’t look like the recipe could be halved or thirded super easily, and I can’t imagine ever needing 3 dozen.

Have you ever used this dough for a base for a casserole or anything? A lot of recipes used store-bought crescent roll dough, and I’d love to use something like this instead.
