Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cans (8 ounces each) crescent roll seamless dough
- 1 can cherry pie filling
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350F.
2
Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
3
In a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla until well blended.
4
Unroll 1 can of the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the baking pan.
5
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough to within 1/2 inch of the sides.
6
Drop the cherry pie filling by spoonfuls evenly over the cream cheese mixture.
7
Carefully unroll the other can of crescent roll dough and place it evenly on top.
8
Use a fork or your fingers to seal the top dough to the bottom dough along the sides of the pan.
9
Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
10
Remove the pan from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
11
Stir half of the milk into the powdered sugar, adding more milk a little at a time as needed, to form an icing that runs in a ribbon off the end of a spoon.
12
Drizzle the icing over the top of the strudel while still warm, but not hot.
13
Cut into pieces and serve. Refrigerate any leftovers.
