Cream Cheese Pastry


These are a Carlisle Family Tradition, recipe courtesy of Rachael. I haven't personally made them yet but they sound amazing!

What you need:
2 packages crescent rolls
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg yolk (save the white)
1 tsp vanilla
powdered sugar
nuts
milk

What you need to do:
Unroll 1 tube of rolls and press seams together on a cookie sheet. Blend cheese, sugar (not powdered sugar), and egg yolk. Spread on rolls. Unroll 2nd tube onto wax paper, sealing seams. Put on top of other and pinch edges. Beat egg white and spread on top. Sprinkle with nuts. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes and then 350 for 10 minutes. Cool slightly and drizzle with powdered sugar that has been mixed with vanilla and milk. (Mrs. Carlisle does not measure the vanilla or milk, just adds to powdered sugar to get a drizzle consistency.)
