Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet by spraying with cooking spray or lining with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the pecans, sugars, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate each can into 4 rectangles (2 of the crescent triangles together). Firmly press together the perforations to seal the 2 crescent triangles together. You will end up with 8 rectangles of dough.
- Brush each rectangle with some melted butter and sprinkle a heaping 1 tablespoon of the pecan/sugar mixture over the butter. Repeat for each rectangle. Starting at the long side of the rectangle, roll up tightly just like cinnamon rolls. Pinch edges to seal.
- Take a sharp knife and cut each roll in half LENGTHWISE. You will end up with 2 rope twists from each rectangle. Take the two pieces and twist them around each other. Place on the prepared cookie sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining pieces.
- Bake for 10-13 minutes or until puffy and golden brown. Let cool for about 10-15 minutes before glazing.
- To prepare the glaze: mix all ingredients together in a small bowl until desired consistency is reached. Add more or less milk and/or powdered sugar depending on how thick or thin you want the glaze.

Note: After rolling, I find it the rolls are easier to cut if you refrigerate them 5 minutes or so before cutting and braiding. Also, I've made them up to the cutting point the night before, covered and refrigerated them, and cut, twisted, and baked them in the morning, just to save a few extra minutes.

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to score the dough. This will help the rolls to rise evenly.
- If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or even a can of soup to roll out the dough.
- Be careful not to overwork the dough. Overworking will make the rolls tough.
- If you are using a bread machine to make the dough, be sure to use the dough setting.
- Let the rolls rise in a warm place until they are doubled in size. This will usually take about 1 hour.
- Bake the rolls at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help them to brown and become crispy.
- Serve the rolls warm with butter, honey, or your favorite spread.
Conclusion:
These maple pecan crescent cinnamon twists are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, give these rolls a try.
