I know, I really hate to do this to you the first weekend of June...the beginning of bikini tankini skirtini (in my case) season.
It has to be done, though. If you're hosting a brunch or a shower, you really need this recipe...and yes, it will kill your diet. Resisting is futile.
What are they? Cream Cheese Triangles. Very glamorous name. (Recipe at the end of this post.)
My mom used to make these and the recipe is written out in her handwriting with a boy's name out to the side. Why? Because my high school homecoming date loved these.
Homecoming was a big deal with after parties, trips to the beach, etc. But, I'll be honest, I was a nerd. I wasn't interested in after parties (and most likely wasn't invited anyway). So, my mom made "breakfast" for my friend Natalie & I and our dates.
These were the hit with my date. I'm so glad she made that little note on the recipe card. I'm sure I would have forgotten it by now. My date was a really sweet guy....we went to church and school together. {He took me to my first opera....I still remember what I wore....a pale pink knit sweater and long skirt ensemble, pale pink pantyhose, pale pink flats (he was shorter than me) and a pale pink grosgrain bow in my hair. Yes, I was a fashion plate!}
Anyway...it all comes back just seeing the recipe.
It's easy, it's a make-ahead and it's one for which I always get asked the recipe. I think you'll like it. :)
Cream Cheese Triangles
2 pkg. Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
2 (8 oz) pkg. cream cheese, softened
2 tsp. vanilla (I used vanilla bean paste to jazz it up a bit) :)
2 egg yolks
8 TBSP sugar
Preheat oven to 350.
Place one pkg of rolls on a cookie sheet lined with parchment. Push seams together.
Beat other ingredients until smooth. Spread on top of crescent rolls on sheet. (An off-set spreader works great for this.)
Place second pkg of rolls on top. Pinch together to seal sides. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes.
Let cool, then cut into triangles (I use a pizza cutter). Wrap in foil and chill in the refrigerator. Serve cold. DO NOT test before your guests arrive...there may not be any left! :)

{Here we are....pre-cream cheese triangles! Yes, it was the 80's!}
