Raspberry Cream Crescents

This is a super easy, super yummy addition to any breakfast, brunch or snack menu!  The crescent bites cook up quick and taste wonderful.  They do not last long on the table once the kids see them!  I hope you enjoy them too!

Cookie Sheet
Medium Mixing bowl
2 Wax paper sheets

1 package of Pillsbury Butter-Flake Crescent Dough
2 tbsp cream cheese
1 cup confectioner’s sugar
8 tsp Smucker’s Raspberry Jam

Confectioner’s Sugar (for decoration/garnish)

Pre heat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium mixing bowl, mix cream cheese and confectioner’s sugar until creamy and smooth.

Spread out crescent dough on wax paper.  In each triangle wedge at the short end of the triangle, add 1 spoonful of cream cheese mixture and 1 tsp raspberry jam.  Roll into crescent shape making sure to pinch seal the edges.

Place on cookie sheet and shape into ½ circles (or crescents).  Bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees or until golden brown.

Remove from oven and cool on new sheet of wax paper.  Decorate with sprinkling of confectioner’s sugar and server.  Makes 8 servings.

NOTE: - Don’t limit yourself to raspberry!  Try chocolate chips, other jam flavors or even fresh blueberries.  Experiment and find your favorites!
