Ingredients

• 2 - 8 Ounces (oz) cans refrigerated crescent dough sheets
• 4 - Cups oil
• 1 - Cup white sugar
• 2 - Teaspoons (tsp) cinnamon, ground
• Chocolate sauce for serving
• 1 - Cup chocolate hazelnut spread, packaged (optional for serving)

Steps

1. Remove dough from each can and unroll into a rectangular shape. Fold the shorter end of one sheet up 1/3 of the way. Fold the opposite edge 1/3 of the way to cover the first fold, creating 3 layers. Use a 3-inch cutter to cut 3 circles from the dough. Form the scraps into another layered piece and cut out one more circle. Repeat with the remaining dough sheet. Use a smaller cutter to cut the center out of each circle to form a donut shape and reserve for donut holes.
2. Fill a large saucepan halfway with oil and place over medium-high heat until it reaches a temperature of 350 to 365 degrees F (175 to 183 degrees C). Line a tray with paper towels.
3. Combine sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish; set aside.
4. Working with 2 to 3 cronuts at a time, carefully lower each cronut into the hot oil. Fry for about 1 minute, rotating occasionally, until browned evenly. Drain briefly on the prepared tray. While donuts are still hot, coat evenly in cinnamon sugar. Repeat with remaining cronuts and donut holes.
5. Serve with chocolate sauce or hazelnut spread for dipping.
