Cinnamon Crescent Rolls

I love cinnamon rolls, I just don't necessarily love the calories that come with them. Besides that, I don't always remember to have cinnamon rolls on hand for the morning that I wake up craving them. I ran across this recipe on Pinterest and like with many of the things I find on Pinterest, I went, "Duh! Why didn't I think of that?" So if you're like me, you'll love this easy recipe :)
