Lemon Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls

1 can crescent rolls

Filling:

4 oz. cream cheese, softened

2 T. sugar

1/4 t. lemon extract

zest of 1/2 lemon, I used a few shakes of Tru-Lemon

Glaze:

1 c. powdered sugar

1 1/2 T. lemon juice

zest of 1/2 lemon, I used few shakes of Tru-Lemon

1/4 t. lemon extract

little milk or smooth consistency

Combine filling ingredients. Place 1 teaspoonful in each crescent roll. Spread over all of roll. Roll up, starting on the wide end. Place on parchment paper covered baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 12 minutes until lightly browned. Makes 8 rolls. Combine glaze ingredients and pour over each roll as soon as they come out of the oven. So yummy and delicious!

*I doubled the filling recipe when I made 16 rolls, but I didn't double the glaze.  

**can also be made with any flavor pie filling instead of the cream cheese. I use a glaze made of powdered sugar, milk, and complimentary flavoring.
