Gluten-Free Crescent Rolls image

Posting this recipe as a substitute for Crescent Rolls. Being on a gluten-free diet this is one of those things that many people miss. An easy and versatile recipe. I was sent this recipe from a friend but think that it was originally developed by the "Better Batter Flour" people. You can use it as you would regular Crescent Roll Dough. Prep time does not include 2 to 3 hours refrigeration/resting time
