Equipment

  • Stock Pot or Dutch Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can crescent rolls buttery flake
  • 8 tbsp. Unsalted butter melted
  • 8 tbsp. Granulated white sugar
  • 4 tbsp. Cinnamon
  • 5 cups Canola oil
  • 1 16 oz tub prepared vanilla frosting

Instructions
 

  • In a stock pot or Dutch oven heat canola oil to 365° F.
  • On a cutting board, unpackage and roll out half the roll of croissant.
  • Use a rolling pin to get rid of the seams in the croissants.
  • Take a sharp knife and cut the croissant sheet into half inch squares.
  • Check the temperature of your oil and once it is at 365° F drop four or five croissant squares into the stock pot.
  • The squares will float to the top as they start to fry. Using a slotted spoon or a mesh strainer, continue flipping the squares so that they brown evenly on both sides while they're cooking.
  • Once they are nice golden brown, using a slotted spoon, remove them from the oil, shake off excess and place them on a paper towel to drain.
  • In a medium sized bowl, add freshly cooked and drained croissant squares to your butter, flip them, until they're fully coated.
  • Next sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mixture all over the croissant bites.
  • Heat in a medium sized microwave. Safe bowl heat pre packaged frosting for 30 seconds to 1 minute until melted.
  • Take a spoon and drizzle over the tops of your cinnamon sugar croissant bites.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Continually stir your bites while they are cooking in the oil. This will help ensure that they don't get over cooked on one side.
