Ingredients

4 tablespoons sugar, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cold butter
1 to 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°. For streusel, in a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons sugar and flour; cut in butter until crumbly. Reserve half the streusel for topping. Stir cinnamon and remaining sugar into remaining streusel.
Unroll crescent dough into a long rectangle; press perforations to seal. Sprinkle with chocolate chips and cinnamon mixture. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Fold roll in half lengthwise; transfer to a greased 8x4-in. loaf pan. Brush with butter; sprinkle with reserved streusel.
Bake until golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
