Cinnamon Sugar Croissant Bites Recipe (with Video)

Preparing the croissant dough
1. In a stock pot or Dutch oven, heat canola oil to 365° F.
2. On a cutting board, unpackage and roll out half the roll of croissant.
3. Use a rolling pin to get rid of the seams in the croissants.
4. Take a sharp knife and cut the croissant sheet into half inch squares.
Deep frying the croissant squares
1. Check the temperature of your oil and once it is at 365° F, drop four or five croissant squares into the stock pot.
2. The squares will float to the top as they start to fry. Using a slotted spoon or a mesh strainer, continue flipping the squares so that they brown evenly on both sides while they're cooking.
3. Once they are nice golden brown, using a slotted spoon, remove them from the oil, shake off excess and place them on a paper towel to drain.
Coating the croissant bites
1. In a medium sized bowl, add freshly cooked and drained croissant squares to your butter, flip them, until they're fully coated.
2. Next, sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mixture all over the croissant bites.
Preparing the frosting
1. In a medium sized microwave-safe bowl, heat pre-packaged frosting for 30 seconds to 1 minute until melted.
2. Take a spoon and drizzle over the tops of your cinnamon sugar croissant bites.
3. Serve and enjoy.
