Ingredients :
1 8 oz package of Cream Cheese
1/2 c sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 cans Crescent Rolls
4 (or more) tbsp of your favorite fruit preserve (my recipe follows)
Icing
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2-1 c powdered sugar (depending on how runny you like your glaze)
2-3 tsp milk (I used about a tablespoon or 2 with about 1 c of powdered sugar)
Instructions :
-In a small bowl, blend Cream Cheese, sugar and lemon juice.
-Roll out crescent dough, one can at a time, and cut into 4 rectangles. If you have the "seamed" kind, roll it into a flat rectangle before you cut.
-Spread rectangles of dough with about 3 tbsp of the cream cheese mixture.
-Starting at long side, gently roll and twist at the same time until the roll is about 10 inches long. Coil loosely into spirals with seam inside. Seal ends
-There should be an indentation in the middle of the coil, but use your thumb to make it slightly larger and fill with half a tablespoon or so of preserves (we like lots of filling).
-Arrange on parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for about 25 to 30 minutes (until deep golden brown)
