Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup margarine, softened
  • 2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup chopped toasted almonds
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 3/8 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (195 degrees C).

  2. Combine softened butter or margarine, brown sugar, flour, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1/8 teaspoon almond extract. Mix well. Spoon mixture into 12 ungreased muffin cups.

  3. Separate dough into 4 long rectangles. Firmly press perforations to seal. Combine melted butter and 1/8 teaspoon almond extract; brush on dough. Sprinkle with nuts, and roll dough up jellyroll fashion. Cut each roll of dough into 3 slices. Place in muffin cups.

  4. Place muffin pan on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. When done, invert rolls immediately onto cooling rack.
