3. Step-by-Step Guide to Making Witch Hat Crescent Rolls

Prepare the Dough

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll the crescent roll dough and cut each triangle into two. On each triangle, place a slice of cheese and, if desired, a small piece of sausage or hot dog inside. Roll up the dough to form a cone shape, resembling a witch hat.

Shape the Witch Hats

Take the rolled crescent shapes and gently bend the tip of the cone downward for a more hat-like appearance. Add a sliced olive at the tip to mimic the brim of the witch hat, securing it with a little egg wash if needed.

Apply Egg Wash and Decorate

Brush the tops of the crescent rolls with the egg wash to give them a shiny, golden finish. For added festive flair, sprinkle some colored sugars or edible glitter on top, making your Spooky Crescent Rolls stand out!

Bake the Witch Hats

Place the shaped rolls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

4. Storage Tips for Leftover Witch Hat Crescent Rolls

Store any leftover Halloween Crescent Rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes until warm and crispy. For best results, avoid freezing these treats—as their shape may be affected upon thawing.
