We used to get them sometimes in Essex Cty NJ. I am sure they do them elsewhere. They are rolled up like a croisant but they are plain bread w/o butter or anything else. They were flaky and broke nice.
I am hoping to find a recipe or formula. I honestly cannot find much by searching online.
Thanks.
For instance, our Betty Crocker cookbook from 1976 has a recipe for dinner rolls and instructions for making several different shapes, including crescent rolls. If you have a roll recipe that you like, you can use it to make crescent rolls. If you don’t, here's one to try:
