Pepper Jelly Danish


Another fun way to use some of my homemade red and green pepper jelly!  The recipe for those are found by following these two links:  http://fleurdelolly.blogspot.com/2012/07/red-pepper-jelly.html and  http://fleurdelolly.blogspot.com/2012/07/green-pepper-jelly.html .

You can easily use store bought as well.

4 - 8 oz. cans refrigerated crescent rolls
1 - 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup red or green pepper jelly
1 T. honey

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Unroll one can of crescent roll dough on a lightly floured surface.  Divide into two pieces, separating at center perforation.  Press each piece into a 7 inch square, pressing perforations to seal.

Bring corners of each dough square to center, partially overlapping each.  Gently press corners into centers using thumb, making a small indentation.  Repeat procedure with remaining cans of crescent rolls.  Transfer to lightly greased baking sheets.

Stir together cream cheese and egg.  Stir together pepper jelly and honey.  Spoon 2 T. cream cream mixture into center of each dough circle.  Top with 2 t. pepper jelly mixture.

Bake for 16 - 18 minutes or until golden brown.
