  2. Combine granulated sugar with ground cinnamon in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. Unroll a crescent dough sheet onto a lightly floured surface to form a rectangle measuring approximately 13x8 inches.
  4. Spread softened butter evenly over the rolled-out dough and sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
  5. Roll the dough tightly into a log shape and pinch the seam to secure the filling.
  6. Cut the rolled dough log in half, then cut each half into six equal pieces.
  7. Twist and shape each piece into a spiral with the cut side facing up before placing in muffin cups.
  8. Bake for 18 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up. Allow to cool for 5 minutes and then roll in cinnamon-sugar.
