Early Bird Review - Meals in Minutes - Lemon Pastries

When the weather warms up, one of the first fruits I love to cook with is lemon. Nothing says Spring or Summer like lemons! Not only is it a pretty fruit, it's also a very tasty one!
There were so many recipes, such as this, in this new cookbook from Gooseberry Patch! 

I had a hard time choosing which recipe to review!

Lemon Pastries 

from

is one of those 'oh so tasty' recipes you'll enjoy

 as a side for breakfast, for dessert 

or the perfect little treat when company's coming over!

 Lemon Pastries

8 oz pkg cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sugar

1 T lemon juice

2 8oz tubes refrigerated crescent rolls

Glaze:

1/2 cup powdered sugar
(add extra if needed, to thicken)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 to 2 T milk

In a bowl, blend cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice; set aside.

Unroll crescent rolls and divide along perforations into triangles.

 Spread with cream cheese mixture.

Roll up crescent roll-style; bake on ungreased baking sheets at 350* for 20 minutes.

(watch carefully so they don't 'over-brown')

like mine did...

Let cool.

To make glaze: 

Whisk ingredients together until smooth and creamy.

  spoon Glaze over the tops before serving.

Mild lemon flavor. 

Not too sweet.

Not too tart.

.......just right!
