How to cook deliciously - Budget Cinnamon Rolls

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, a silicone mat, or aluminum foil.

2. Stage

Unroll crescent roll dough and pull apart at the seams to separate into 8 triangles.

3. Stage

Mix brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, cocoa powder, and pepper for filling together in a bowl until moist but crumbly. Add a thin layer of filling on each triangle, from the base to about 1-inch from the top. Roll up triangles from the base to the top; transfer to the prepared cookie sheet.

4. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes.

5. Stage

While the rolls are baking, combine milk and butter for glaze in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until butter is almost melted, about 20 seconds.

6. Stage

Add 1/4 cup powdered sugar and salt; whisk until smooth. Add remaining 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; whisk until smooth. It should be about the consistency of pancake batter. Stir in orange extract.

7. Stage

Remove rolls from the oven and transfer to a plate. Pour glaze over hot rolls. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
