These breakfast rolls are yummy enough to be a dessert. They look extra-special with a drizzle of melted chocolate. Ingredients:
1/4 cup almond paste |
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips |
1 tablespoon shortening |
1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls |
Directions:
1. Divide almond paste into eight portions; shape each into a small log. Set aside. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth.
2. Unroll crescent dough; separate into triangles. Spread each with 1 tablespoon chocolate mixture; set aside remaining mixture for drizzling. Place one portion almond paste at wide end of each triangle. Roll up and place point side down 2 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet; curve ends to form a crescent.
3. Bake at 375° for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle with reserved chocolate mixture. Yield: 8 rolls.
