Cherry Almond Crescent Candy Cane
Ingredients:
- 2 packs of refrigerated crescent rolls
- 1 15 oz cherry pie filling
Ingredients for the Glaze:
- 2 TBS butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp almond extract
- 1-2 TBS milk
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange crescent roll triangles pointing inward into the shape of a candy cane with edges overlapping. Lightly press triangles together to seal. I used exactly 1 1/2 packages of crescent rolls to make the candy cane shape.
- Add Cherry Pie filling to the larger part of the crescent rolls- I used about ¾ can.
- Fold tops of triangles towards the base end of each triangle and press lightly to seal. Using the extra croissant roll dough, cut the triangle ends off of 2 rolls to fill in extra spaces at the top of the candy cane as necessary.
- Bake for around 15 minutes or until top of pastry is golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly before adding glaze.
- Melt Butter in small sauce pan for 2-3 minutes on low heat. Add powdered sugar, almond extract and milk to the saucepan. Whisk until smooth.
- Drizzle over candy cane crescent rolls, and enjoy!!
