Orange Crescents
An old altered Pampered Chef Recipe
************************************
This is hands down my husband's favorite. If I make a batch, he will eat them all day long. It's often a Saturday morning special, but sometimes if he is having a rough week, I'll make these and warm up a couple for him to have during the week.
2 cans Pillsbury Buttery Crescent rolls (no store brands!)
1 orange
1 8 0z. pkg. cream cheese (softened)
Powdered sugar
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Blend cream cheese, 1/3 cup powdered sugar, 1 tsp fine orange zest, 2 tsp.
orange juice. Place a dollop of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each crescent roll
and roll up. Place on a baking sheet (I prefer a Pampered Chef baking stone) and bake 15
minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool. Drizzle with glaze.
Orange Glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp. orange zest
2-3 tsp orange juice.
**Optional additions - mini choc. chips, berries or nuts. If you would like to
add something to your rolls, add a 1/4 cup of your favorite addition to the cream
cheese mixture just before putting it in the crescent rolls.
