Carrot Cake Cruffins

Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly spray a standard 12cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
Working on a lightly floured work surface roll out each tube of dough to a 1216inch rectangle. We
used crescent roll sheets if you are using perforated crescent roll dough be sure to pinch the seams to seal.
Spread 2 tablespoons of softened butter evenly over each sheet of dough.
In a small bowl whisk together the sugar cinnamon and nutmeg.
Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the mixture evenly over the top of each buttered dough sheet gently pressing it into the dough.

Top with ¼ cup each of carrots and walnuts.
Starting on the long end of the dough sheet tightly roll it up into a log.
Cut the log in half creating two shorter logs.
Cut each of those shorter logs in half lengthwise giving you four sections of dough.
Repeat with the remaining two sheets of dough. You will have 12 sections of dough.
Working one section of dough at a time with the layered side facing out roll it tightly into a cinnamon roll shape tucking in the end piece of dough.
Place into the prepared muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining 11 sections.
Bake for 1820 minutes or until golden brown.
In the last few minutes of baking add the granulated sugar to a bowl.
Remove rolls from the oven and immediately roll each cruffin in the sugar.
Cream Cheese Drizzle
While the cruffins cool slightly in a medium bowl mix together the butter cream cheese vanilla confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons milk. Add more milk if necessary to thin the glaze.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm cruffins.
Garnish with candied walnuts. Enjoy!
Can I Make Cruffins with Puff Pastry Sheets?
Yes! You could use 3 sheets of puff pastry 1 12 boxes thawed according to package instructions to make 12 cruffins. However the baking instructions are a little different. If using a puff pastry sheet follow the instructions for filling rolling and cutting. Place in the prepared muffin tin and bake for 24 minutes at 400F. Notice the baking time and temperature are different when compared to making the cruffins with crescent roll sheets.
