Directions:

Preparation, Baking and Decorating

Preheat the oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get it ready for baking.
Prepare the dough: Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it onto a clean surface. You will find that the dough is divided into triangular pieces.
Shape the hats: Take each triangle and roll it up from the wide end to the pointy tip. This will create the shape of a witch hat.
Place on a baking sheet: Put the rolled crescent rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave some space between each one.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown.
Cool slightly: Once they are done baking, take the rolls out of the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Decorate: Use the frosting to pipe decorations on the hats. You can put chocolate chips, M&M’s, or candy corn at the top as a buckle. If you wish, sprinkle some edible glitter or Halloween-themed sprinkles for extra fun.
