Ingredients

Canola oil, for grill grates
2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 (8-ounce) package refrigerated crescent dough sheet
1 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1 Tbsp. milk

Directions

1. Step 1Soak 8 (10-inch) wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes; drain. Heat a campfire or grill to medium. Once hot, clean and oil grill grates. Stir together granulated sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
2. Step 2Unroll crescent dough and cut into 4 rectangles. Brush 2 rectangles with butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Top with remaining rectangles. From the long end, cut each rectangle into 4 strips. Twist strips around skewers, and pinch to seal.
3. Step 3Grill over direct heat, turning halfway through, 4 to 6 minutes. Move to indirect heat and grill just until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk together confectioners’ sugar and milk in a bowl. Drizzle over warm twists.
