Crescent Tarts

  • 1 roll of Crescent rolls
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla

 

Preheat oven to 350*.

Line a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan (a cookie sheet with sides) with no-stick foil.

With a mixer, combine cheese, yolk, sugar and vanilla until well combined.

Separate rolls.

Add a tsp. of filling into each roll.

Fold roll over and crimp the sides with your fingers or a fork to keep filling inside while baking. (It will be in the shape of a triangle.)

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until light brown and baked through.

For an added treat, add 2 tsp. of your favorite jam into the mixture while mixing. Or dollop a little on top of the cream cheese mixture before crimping the rolls.
