cherries, (frozen)

sugar

lemon juice

water

tbsp corn starch

oz cream cheese, (room temperature)

tsp vanilla extract

½ tbsp milk

Preheat oven to 375°

In a small saucepan over low heat, add frozen cherries, sugar and lemon juice. Stir and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes until hot and bubbly.

In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Add sugar, egg yolk, vanilla and lemon juice. Beat for an additional 2 minutes.

For The Cream Cheese Filling

Unroll crescent rolls and separate into the precut triangles.

Place triangles on an ungreased baking sheet, or a round pizza tin, so that the wider end of the crescent is in the center forming the circle with about a five inch opening in the center. The smaller tip of the crescent is on the outside. *When forming the circle, the wider ends of the crescents will overlap each other. 

Spread cream cheese mixture over the wide part of the crescents.

Spoon cherry filling on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Fold the small tip of the crescent over and tuck under the wider part to secure forming the ring.

Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from oven and let cool.

Making The Pastry Ring

In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar and milk together until combined.

Drizzle over pastry ring. Cut and enjoy!

Cream Cheese Mixture

Gently open up and roll puff pastry a few times until square on a lightly floured surface.

Spoon half of the cream cheese mixture down the center of each puff pastry leaving about 1½ inch free from filling at each end.

See photo: cut two slits at each end of the pastry about 1 inch long and fold over the top of the filling and secure to prevent mixture from leaking out.

Next cut off the top and bottom side pieces at an angle and continue to make cuts into the pastry along each side making sure not to cut too close to the filling.

Once the cherry mixture has cooled, add about three heaping tablespoons of mixture on top of the cream cheese filling, gently spread, then repeat with the other puff pastry.

Once the ends have been secured, start folding each piece over each other like a braid.
