Recipe Introduction


You can even prepare the cream cheese and cherry fillings the day before baking.


List of Ingredients









2 cans (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar, divided
3 teaspoons Vanilla Extract , divided
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling*
2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon , divided
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts






1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Unroll 1 can of crescent rolls to cover the bottom of a greased 13x9-inch baking dish, without pressing seams together.

2. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until smooth. Spread over crescent rolls. Combine pie filling with 1 teaspoon cinnamon and remaining 2 teaspoons vanilla. Spoon and gently spread over cheese mixture.

3. Unroll second crescent can of crescent rolls over fruit. Brush top surface with melted butter. Top with a mixture of remaining 1/4 cup sugar, nuts, and remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Bake 30 minutes, or until dough is done and golden brown. Allow to stand 10 minutes. Serve warm.

*To substitute cherry pie filling with apple filling, increase cinnamon used in fruit filling from 1 teaspoon to 2 teaspoons.
