By Addie

"I almost always have everything on hand to throw these together whenever a craving hits! They're perfect for a weekend breakfast treat (Easter's coming up!) or even for a late night treat."

Ingredients

• Glaze:
• 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls
• 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tbsp. lemon juice
• 8 tsp. strawberry preserves (or flavor of your choice)
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1-2 tsp. milk

Preparation

Step 1

Start with a can of crescent rolls that are divided into 4 rectangles
Separate the dough into 4 rectangles and pinch seams together. On a lightly floured surface, roll each into a 6"x3" rectangle. In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Spread over rectangles. Roll up from a long side and loosely spiral each one.

Place on ungreased baking sheet. Top each coil with 2 tsp. preserves. Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Combine glaze ingredients and drizzle over tops after they have cooled for a few minutes.
