With their biscuits & crescent rolls?
When we were kids, my mom used to make doughnuts out of the biscuits! I did this the other night for my kids and they LOVED it!
All you do, is quarter the grands, fry them up in a little oil and roll them in cinnamon & sugar or powdered sugar.
Just be careful, that the oil is not to hot otherwise they burn on the outside and are raw on the inside!
I have another recipe that I will type out later for a baked chicken club using crescent rolls.
Anyone have some tried and true's to pass on?

Great Thread!!
My son makes stuffed grands, he rolls them out and packs them with cooked burger or pepperoni or cheese and closes them up and bakes them.
I like the donut idea, I'll do that!

I know not the same as biscuits and stuff but if your the baking Mom at school like me and cheap I thought this could help. I'm making my own cookie cake out of the Betty crocker pouches we all have tons of. I'm using a small pizza pan with no holes and made 2 pouches for one cake. They are usally about $8.99 in store and our cookies were free or pennies!!

Mod, can we pretty please keep this thread here:)
Monkey bread with the biscuits!
SO many good crescent roll recipes. I made pigs in a blanket with mini hillshire farm sausages for a party this week. They are always a hit.
This recipe is from a friend and it is to die for.
Easy Apple Dumplings
2 Granny Smith apples
2 cans crescent rolls
2 sticks butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup Mountain Dew
Peel and core apples (see notes below)
Cut apples into 8 slices each (see notes below)
Roll each apple slice in a crescent roll
Place in a 9 x 13 greased pan.
Melt butter, then add sugar and barely stir.
Add vanilla to butter mixture, stir, and pour over apples.
Pour Mountain Dew around the edges of the pan.
Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
Can be served with ice cream

I flatten the biscuits, wrap them around a <free> hot dog, then bake. Cooks both hot dog and "bun" and they reheat well if you have leftovers.

i do the donut thing too. :) If you use the cheepest version of the canned biscuit and fry it up and coat in granulated sugar, you have a "chinese donut".
I've made tons of things with the buscuits and cresents.
Pigs in a blanket
little smokies (smoked sausages) with a piece of cresent wrapped around it.
Pizzas....flatten the biscuits, I use the flaky layers and pull them apart into 4 pieces each, lay on a baking pan, add a little sauce, cheese, maybe a pepperoni, and you have pizza, my kids love these.

I needed dinner for the kids the other night and didn't want to have to go to the store, so pressed the edges of the crescents together, added sauce and mozarella and it was so yummy! The crescents made a really good crust.

Roll up salami and cheese inside the crescent roll then bake as normal. Make a yummy honey mustard dipping sauce and you have a "fancy" hor douvre(sp). Or wrap it around a slice of havarti dill or swiss, and a 3 inch end piece of asparagus.
