  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°. Mix sugar and cinnamon.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll one sheet pastry into an 11x8-in. rectangle. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup cinnamon sugar. Working from short sides, roll up jelly-roll style toward center. Wrap in plastic; freeze for 10 minutes. Repeat.
