EASY MINI KING CAKES
Let the good times roll! Turn a can of crescent roll dough into sweet, buttery, cinnamon- and sugar-filled cakes that are a fun treat for Mardi Gras. They're easy to make and much cheaper than the ones you'd find at a bakery. Serve with a hot cup of coffee or a cold glass of milk.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 360 degrees F (182 degrees C). Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Stir brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon together in a small bowl until smooth.
- Remove crescent roll dough from the can and separate into 4 rectangles. Press the seams together tightly to seal the dough.
- Spread butter mixture evenly over each rectangle, not going all the way to the edges. Start at the bottom of each long edge and roll tightly into a 10-inch log, sealing any open seams. Bring the ends of each roll together to form an oval shape, making sure you press tightly to seal so the filling doesn't ooze out in the air fryer and burn.
- Place one or two at a time in the prepared air fryer basket without overcrowding.
- Air-fry in the preheated air fryer for 5 minutes per batch. Remove to a wire rack and cool.
- Meanwhile, whisk powdered sugar and milk together until smooth. Divide mixture among 3 bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl.
- Drizzle icing over each cooled cake and decorate with sugar or sprinkles. Let icing dry before serving, about 10 minutes.

SLIM FIT KING CAKE
I wanted to make a Mardi Gras King Cake for my friends because we are expatriates in Malaysia with no bakeries that can make them, and some people we know have never even tried one! However, I wanted to make it lighter too, so I made some substitutions and created my own cake that appears and tastes decadent, but is actually quite light. Bakeries in Louisiana do standard cinnamon-sugar fillings, but they do all kinds of other fruit/pudding fillings, too, so I decided to go fruity. Laissez les bon temps rouler! Add some edible beads for further decoration if you can find them!

- Pour warm milk into a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk in your sugar and yeast and let proof 10 minutes. Whisk in your butter, egg yolks, vanilla and lemon zest, cinnamon and nutmeg. Use a dough hook or wooden spoon to mix in flour and knead until it forms a dough ball. The dough should be greasy and solid, but not sticky, and should naturally pull away from the sides of the bowl.
- Transfer to a large un-greased mixing bowl. Cover and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
- Once dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 10"x20" rectangle. Cut the dough lengthwise into 3 roughly equal long strips.
- For your filling, mix together your sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Spread your butter over each of the dough strips and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture.
