Orange-Almond Pastries Recipe










Ingredients:

1/2 cup orange marmalade
3 drop almond extract
6 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
1 butter-flavored cooking spra
1/4 cup light cream cheese
1 tbsp powdered sugar, sifted
1 orange rind strip, for garnish

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine orange marmalade and almond
extract; set aside. Coat phyllo sheets, working with one sheet at a
time, lightly with cooking spray; fold each in half lengthwise.
Lightly coat with cooking spray; cut crosswise into 4 rectangles (6
1/2 x 4 1/2-inches). Spread 1/2 teaspoon cream cheese on the short
side of each phyllo strip; top with 1 teaspoon marmalade mixture.
Fold long sides in about 1/2 inch. Beginning with the
marmalade-filled end, roll up jelly roll fashion. Place each roll,
seam side down, on a baking sheet. Lightly coat tops of rolls with
cooking spray. Bake for 7 minutes. Remove from pans immediately;
sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cool completely on a wire rack. Place
on a serving tray and garnish with orange rind, if desired. (42
