directions

1. Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles.
2. Take two triangles, and place them wide end to wide end, overlapping just slightly.
3. Pinch/press wide ends together to make one large diamond.
4. Roll up loosely starting at long side, to make a long rope.
5. Curve ends around and cross over.
6. Tuck ends under.
7. Kind of scrunch up to form a loose, round croissant shape.

These weren't quite the same but they worked fine. I will make these often for the kids(they won't notice the difference) but will probably still buy every now and then for hubby and I. Made for ZWT 07
