Butterscotch Apple Cinnamon Crescents

I love to fill my home with the wonderful smells of the season - like cinnamon, butterscotch, and apples on Christmas morning. A warm fire blazing, Christmas music playing, and these beautiful Crescent Rolls coming hot out of the oven.

What a way to start my favourite day of the year!
