Almond Honey Crescents Recipe

Almond Honey Crescents

From chefmeow 16 years ago

Awesome dessert that can be served at breakfast, brunch, or anytime. Light, fluffy and incredible crescents bursting with flavors. Enjoy

Cream butter and cream cheese until fluffy.
Add 3 tablespoons honey and mix well then mix in flour until dough holds together.
Form into a ball then wrap and refrigerate 2 hours or longer.
Divide dough in 4 portions then on a floured board roll each portion into a 9” circle.
Combine 2 tablespoons honey and lemon juice then mix well.
Brush dough with honey mixture then sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon over entire surface.
Combine almonds and dried cherries then drizzle remaining honey over mixture and mix well.
Spread 1/4 almond mixture onto circle of dough stopping 1/2" from outer edge.
Cut into 8 triangular pieces then roll from wide outer edge toward tip.
Gently bend both ends to form a crescent.
Place on oiled parchment paper lined baking sheet and refrigerate 20 minutes or longer.
Repeat with remaining dough and filling then bake at 350 for 25 minutes and cool on racks.
