    List of Ingredients




    1 can crescent rolls
    1/4 cup cinnamon
    1/4 cup butter
    1 can fruit pie filling (cherry, blueberry, peach)
    1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
    1 cup powdered sugar
    1/2 cup icing (recipe follows)
    3/4 cup sugar, divided into 3 parts, 1/4 cup each
    Food coloring in gold, purple, green

    Recipe



    After opening the can of crescent rolls, unroll the entire package of rolls at one time, in one piece. With your fingers, press seams together to form one piece of dough. Mix together the butter and cinnamon, and gently spread over the dough. Mix together the cream cheese and powdered sugar. Drop teaspoonfuls over the top of the dough. Drop teaspoonfuls of the pie filling over the dough as you did the cream cheese. Starting on the long end, carefully roll the dough, horizontally, with the filling and cream cheese inside. Insert the Mardi Gras baby at any place within the dough.

    Place on baking pan with the seam side down in a circle, pinching the ends together. Bake at 350ºF for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. While the cake is baking, use the food coloring to dye the sugar. When cake is cool, pour icing over the top of the cake. Sprinkle with the colored sugar, alternating the three colors as you go around the circle.

    Icing: Combine 1 cup confectioners sugar, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water until smooth. If icing is too stiff, cautiously add more water until spreadable. Spread over cake and immediately sprinkle with colored sugars in alternating bands around the cake.
