Nutella Rolls With Cream Cheese Icing

Nutella Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing

Ingredients:
1 can Pillsbury Grand Biscuits
1 small jar Nutella
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tsp vanilla

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350
Roll each of the grand biscuits out into a flat circle with a rolling pin, coat with sugar on both sides.
Spread a couple of TBSP of Nutella onto each rolled out dough.
Roll up each dough (like a jelly-roll)
Cut each rolled up dough into 3 equal pieces.
Place 3 pieces, with the cut side up, into each muffin tin slot (sprayed with Pam)

Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes.  Once cooked, let cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes, then remove and let finish cooling (or if you are like me and like them warm, then you won't have to wait long!)

For icing, beat softened cream cheese, vanilla and powdered sugar together until smooth.  Top each Nutella Roll with icing.

Playing with Jewelry

I have been trying to learn jewelry making.  I made the turquoise necklace, bracelet and earrings, then made two more earrings.  The earring set on the right is still in pieces.

I am just learning and found that joining a kit of the month club was helpful.  What you see in the picture is 2 kits.  I actually have two more earring sets to make after finishing the one on the right.

To me it is a inexpensive way to learn.  The kit includes all of the things you need to complete some fun projects.  It is something that works for me.  The site for the kits also have videos set up for the projects, so you can see the items being made.

Sopapilla Cheesecake Dessert

My husband found this recipe.  He is a cheesecake lover!  Today I made it for him!

Sopapilla Cheesecake Dessert

Ingredients:

3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 (8 ounce) cans crescent roll dough

1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Beat the cream cheese with 1 1/2 cups sugar and vanilla until smooth.  Unroll the cans of crescent roll dough.  Use a rolling pin to shape each piece into 9X13 inch rectangles.  Press one piece into the bottom of a 9X13 inch baking dish.  Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture onto the dough in the baking dish, then cover with the remaining pice of crescent dough.

Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cheesecake.  Stir the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl, and sprinkle over the top, along with the almonds.

Bake until crescent dough has puffed and turned golden brown: about 45 minutes.  Cool completely in the pan before  cutting into 12 squares.


YUM!
