    List of Ingredients

    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    1/2 cup slivered almonds
    1 (3-oz.) pkg. cream cheese
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla
    1/8 teaspoon almond extract
    1 egg yolk
    1 (8-oz.) can Pillsbury® Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
    1/4 cup cherry preserves
    1/2 cup powdered sugar
    2 teaspoons water

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In food processor, place granulated sugar and almonds; process about 30 seconds or until almonds are finely ground. Add cream cheese, vanilla, almond extract and egg yolk; process about 10 seconds or until combined.
    On lightly floured surface, unroll dough into 1 large rectangle. With floured rolling pin or fingers, roll or press dough into 12 x 9-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal.
    Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over dough. Starting with 1 long side of dough rectangle, roll up dough into log (filling will be soft). With serrated knife, cut log into 12 slices; place slices, cut side up, in sprayed muffin cups.
    Bake at 375°F. for 11 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from oven. With handle of wooden spoon, make indentation in center of each roll. Spoon 1 teaspoon preserves into each indentation.
    Return to oven; bake an additional 2 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Run knife around edge of muffin cups to loosen; remove rolls from cups and place on wire racks.
    In small bowl, blend powdered sugar and water until smooth; drizzle over warm rolls. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in refrigerator. 12 rolls
