Slowly but surely, my inner Grinch is disappearing.
It’s December – I have no idea how that happened.
Jolly the elf has arrived.
I cleaned the house to Christmas music yesterday,
and I have purchased ALL of my holiday baking necessities.
As for my home, well…
it’s beginning to look a lot little like Christmas.
In keeping with my new and improved mood,
I decided to bring a little “holiday” to breakfast.
The raspberry sauce is quick and easy,
and crescent rolls make this a snap to put together.
I can definitely see this making an appearance for our holiday brunch.
Enjoy!
For the raspberry sauce:
2 cups of raspberries {fresh or frozen}
1 cup of sugar
1 tbsp corn starch
in a small saucepan combine berries and sugar
over medium – high heat
bring to a boil
reduce the heat to medium
stirring often
cook for about 5 minutes and then add the cornstarch
continue to stir until the sauce has thickened {about another 5 minutes}
set aside to cool
on a parchment lined sheet
roll out the crescent dough
using a floured rolling pin
roll into one large rectangle
cut slits into each side {for the branches}
gently pull and twist each section
spread the center with 1/4 cup of softened cream cheese
top with the raspberry sauce
curl each branch inward
bake @375 for 12 minutes
allow the bread to cool slightly,
and then dust with powdered sugar
Here’s to a very happy holiday season:)
