Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even layer.

In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Sprinkle the mixture generously over the melted butter layer.

Step 8

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the butter-sugar topping is caramelized.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature before cutting into squares.
