This is great for potlucks. Easy to make the night before and tastes great! I've been told that they now make seamless crescent rolls - and if you can find those, they'd work perfect for this recipe!! Special thanks to my Aunt Kim for sharing this recipe with me!!

Woohoo... this is so easy and SO delicious! A small serving goes a long way, but be prepared to serve up seconds just the same. With its sweet creamy center and crunchy sugary top, this is a wonderful dessert for any occasion!
