Ingredients
  

For the Rolls:
  • 1 tube Crescent Rolls (8 rolls)
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter for spreading
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 2/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Oven
  • Spatula

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Open the tube of crescent rolls and gently unroll the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the orange zest, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Spread a thin layer of butter over the unrolled crescent dough. Then, sprinkle the orange filling evenly over the dough, followed by the mini chocolate chips.
  4. Starting from the wide end of the crescent triangle, carefully roll the dough towards the pointed end, forming a tight log. Pinch the seams to seal.
  5. Once rolled, slice the log into 8 equal pieces. Place them cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each roll.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Your kitchen will smell amazing!
  7. While the rolls are baking, whisk together the powdered sugar and fresh orange juice in a small bowl until smooth. Once the rolls are out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top.
  8. Serve these Easy Chocolate Chip Orange Sweet Rolls warm, and watch them disappear in no time!

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use fresh orange zest and juice.
  • Don’t overfill the rolls, or they may burst open while baking.
  • Consider adding chopped nuts for extra texture.
