Turnovers

Yesterday was Christmas. I was wanting to do something special for the husband for our Christmas breakfast, so I decided to make Turnovers! Before I was married, I used to have cherry turnovers periodically, but I can't ever find the brand in the store anymore. If I do, it's pretty hit or miss... mostly a miss. So this year, I decided to try a little something different, and make it myself. I didn't feel like making everything from scratch, so most of it isn't that way. I was looking for quick, easy, and tasty... I found it. It was a Christmas Miracle!



Turnovers
2 packages of Pillsbury Original Crescent rolls (you might actually get away with 3pkgs for 1 can filling)
1 can of pie filling (I chose cherry because it's the best)

Icing:
1 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
2 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 T butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 Tablespoons milk

Directions
Opening and unrolling the crescent rolls, attempt to make more of a square than the triangles. Spoon pie filling onto the widest part of the crescent rolls. Fashion the rolls into a pocket. The goal is to make it so the yummy filling doesn't seep its way onto your GREASED cookie sheet and burn. Do this for all the rolls. Bake according to package directions (If I remember right it was at 350* for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown). 

While baking, mix all the icing ingredients together in a bowl. When the rolls are finished baking and are still warm, spoon the icing on to your heart's content. I kind of like a lot of icing on my turnovers because it's quite delicious, but I understand some people might not agree. One thing we can all agree on:

Best eaten when warm!
