King Cake with Cream Cheese Cinnamon Filling
Check out my YouTube video to watch me making this delicious treat! Halloween use orange & black, Thanksgiving use autumn colors, Christmas use holiday colors, Valentine's Day go pink, St Patrick Day party foods make perfect green food ideas and Easter's pastel colors for your icing instead of Mardi Gras colors.
Servings 16 servings
Ingredients
  • 4 8-ounce cans reduced-fat crescent rolls
  • 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Servings 16 servings
Ingredients
  • 4 8-ounce cans reduced-fat crescent rolls
  • 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven 350°F. Coat 10-inch round pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Separate crescent rolls at perforations, into 16 slices. Place slices around prepared pan with points in center. About halfway down from points, press seams together.
  3. In mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla until creamy. Spread on dough in center where seams have been pressed together.
  4. In another small bowl, combine butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon with fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over cream cheese. Fold dough points over filling, then fold bottom of triangle over points forming a circular roll like a king cake.
  5. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly, drizzle with colored Mardi Gras Icing.
