Cream Cheese Croissants



These are so good & so easy!





Cream Cheese Croissants

2 (8 oz.) pkg. croissants (I always use the reduced fat)

8 oz. cream cheese, softened (I use the reduced fat for this too)

3/4 C. sugar

1 tsp. vanilla




Open one package of croissants, unroll (don't flatten) & place on a greased jelly roll pan. Pinch perforated edges together. Mix cream cheese, sugar, & vanilla together. Spread mixture on top of croissant & then lay second croissant on top (pinch edges together as before). Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven & let cool for 15 minutes & then drizzle glaze on top.




Glaze

1-2 C. powdered sugar (I just dump some in, so I'm guessing on the amount)

1-3 Tbsp. milk

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 Tbsp. butter, softened (optional)


Mix together. Add more milk or powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency.




*If I'm just making this for Danny & I, I half the recipe & it works great!
