    List of Ingredients




    FOR THE FILLING:
    1 (8 oz.) pkg.. light cream cheese, softened
    1/4 cup sugar
    1 tsp. lemon juice
    2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted, divided use
    1/4 cup raisins

    FOR THE DOUGH:
    1 loaf bread dough, thawed (sweet or white bread)
    1 Tbsp. all purpose flour

    FOR THE GLAZE:
    1 cup powdered sugar
    1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
    1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. milk

    Recipe



    TO PREPARE THE FILLING:
    Combine cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice, and 1 1/2 tbsp of the melted butter in a bowl. Mix thoroughly. Stir in raisins and set aside.

    TO PREPARE AND FILL THE DOUGH:
    Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface forming a 12x15 inch rectangle.

    Spread with cream cheese mixture. Starting with shorter side, roll up tightly. Pinch edge to seal. Form a ring and place seam-side down on a large cookie sheet that has been coated with nonstick cooking spray.

    With scissors, make cuts nearly to the center of ring about 1-1/2 inches apart. Turn each slice on its side, resting on the adjoining slice. Cover with plastic wrap that has been coated with nonstick cooking spray. Let rise 1 1/2 hours, or until almost doubled in size.

    WHEN READY TO BAKE:
    Preheat oven to temperature 350 degrees F.

    Remove plastic wrap from the dough and bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

    TO MAKE THE GLAZE:
    Combine the powdered sugar, milk, and 1 1/2 tbsp melted butter.

    Glaze while pastry is still warm.

    Servings: 8
