This is a recipe we got from an American Girl book. It is best served as a breakfast pastry or dessert. The original recipe calls for the crescents to be filled with jam, but we liked them better with a combination of butter, cinnamon and brown sugar. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup cream cheese |
1 pinch salt |
1 tablespoon sour cream |
2 cups flour |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 tablespoons melted butter |
Directions:
1. Cream together the butter, cream cheese, salt, and sour cream.
2. Stir in the flour.
3. On a floured surface, kneed the dough with your hands until it's smooth.
4. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for three hours.
5. Place chilled dough on a lightly floured countertop.
6. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough thin (about 1/8 ).
7. With a table knife, cut the dough into 3 squares.
8. Spread one corner of each square with the filling mixture.
9. Starting in that corner, roll up each square, then curve in the ends to form a crescent.
10. Place on cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until edges are beginning to turn golden.
