There's nothing homier than the smell of fresh baked bread (other than chocolate chip cookies). I'm taking a break from so much of the sweetness this year (although chocolate is sure to be involved somewhere); BREAD is the theme of 2013! Bread can present itself in many shapes and forms, anything from yeast-based, rising bread to quick bread to scones to muffins to biscuits to pancakes and waffles, and whatever else I can find. Join me as we will be "rolling in the dough" this year.

Bread Recipe #17 - Raspberry Cheese Danish
Since I am currently visiting my parents in Michigan and my Dad is a raspberry lover AND these are quick and simple to make, AND it is snowing outside, in April (maybe that’s not a good excuse, just a complaint) this week’s bread recipe is as follows.
Ingredients: 4 ounces cream cheese, softened, ¼ cup plus ½ cup confectioners’ sugar, divided, 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls, ½ cup seedless raspberry jam, 2 teaspoons 2% milk.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese and ¼ cup confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into four rectangles; seal the perforations. Cut each rectangle in half, making eight squares.
Transfer squares to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Spread 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture diagonally across each square. Top with 1 tablespoon raspberry jam. Bring two opposite corners of the dough over filling; pinch together firmly to seal.
Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Combine milk and remaining confectioners’ sugar; drizzle over pastries. Serve warm or cool.
Refrigerate any leftovers.
