Crescent Roll Cookie Cutter Shapes
Fun breakfasts are such a special treat for the kids. Throughout the years, the kids and I have had some breakfast ideas that I’ve shared on the blog like Make ahead and freeze french toast sticks, Shortcut Cinnabon Waffles , and Ghost Hardboiled Eggs. The crescent dough sold in grocery stores is easy to Shape and makes a fun breakfast treat for the kids.
