Easy Crescent Danish Wreath

I made this for the neighborhood Christmas party and it was a hit I guess because it was gone pretty quickly.  I did get to try a piece and it was delicious so I bought the stuff to make it again for the fam.

wreath

2 (8 oz each) cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls or refrigerated crescent dough sheets

6 oz cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup powdered sugar

1/4 cup seedless raspberry or strawberry jam (I used my homemade strawberry)

topping

1/2 cup powdered sugar

2 – 2 1/2 teaspoons milk

1  Heat oven to 375.  Line pizza stone or large cookie sheet with parchment paper.

2  Remove dough from one can, do not unroll.  Using serrated knife, cut dough into 12 rounds.  Repeat with second can of dough.  Flatten rounds to about 2″ circles.

3  Arrange 9 rolls in a circle, spacing just slightly apart on the pizza stone or cookie sheet.  Arrange remaining rounds around outer edge of first circle, also spacing just slightly apart.  Gently press and flatten the middle of each round to create a well for topping.

4  In a small bowl, mix cream cheese and powdered sugar until well blended.  Spoon generous 1 teaspoon of cream cheese mixture on center of each dough round, spreading slightly.

5  Bake 19 – 23 minutes or until golden brown and dough is baked through.  Immediately top with 1/2 teaspoon of jam so it is in the center of each piece.

6  In a small bowl, mix topping ingredients until you have a drizzling consistency.  Drizzle over the top.
