You can replace the black cherries with 1 can of regular cherry pie filling (but it’s not quite as good as the gourmet black cherries).

Ingredients

  • 2 packages, 8 ounces each refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 package 8 oz. cream cheese, you can use “light”
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. almond extract
  • 1 jar Amarena Toschi Black Cherries, lightly drained

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375. Unroll crescent dough; lay out on your cooking stone or cookie sheet (see photo), in a circle, with wide ends toward the center.
  • Mix cream cheese, sugar, egg and extract together. Spread onto the crescent dough, around the ring.
  • Spoon the cherry pie filling on top.
  • Bring the crescent dough tips up and over the mixture, tucking into the inside of the ring.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
