Recipe Notes

  • Crescent Roll Dough?  Yes. You can use Pillsbury or a brand equivalent. If your store stocks them, you can also use the crescent roll sheets. 
  • Cream Cheese: Be sure it's softened.  It makes life and this recipe much easier.
  • When working with your crescent dough, don't rush it.  It will rip easy.  However, it is pretty simple to work with and will come back together really quickly.
  • With that said, if your dough has a few rips in it, that is ok.  Once it bakes, it will come back together.  Plus, your icing will hide any blemishes. ;)
