Honey Moon Rolls


Okay...this one's a no-brainer!  It's all in the name...and the shape...and the smell of pastries baking...and the taste...of cheese and honey and nuts and honey...Honey.
Very simple to make, these pastries are homey and warm and taste like love.  
Want to spice things up?  Add a pinch of cinnamon to the cheese mixture...

What's In It:

1 8 oz. tube crescent rolls  
4 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tbs. honey (Keep the jar handy.  You'll want to drizzle some on top later.)
1/4 sliced almonds

How To Make It:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Toast almonds in saute' pan until golden.  Set aside to cool.(Nuts will continue to cook after removing them from heat.  Be careful not to overcook)
Separate dough into 8 triangles.
Beat cream cheese, 2 tbs. honey and cooled almonds until mixed well.
Place 1 tbs. of cheese mixture to the center of each dough triangle.
Roll from widest to smallest end, bending slightly in center to form crescent shape and place on ungreased cooked sheet.
Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden.
Drizzle with additional honey and serve warm.
