cookin' dessert at wurk...

... though I gave all this away, and never actually put any in my mouth, I suspect it should be classified as a controlled substance, and kept under lock and key. Especially the part where you spread the honey butter on...so good, you will want to go in the closet with the tub and a spoon and deny everything later.

Cinnamon peach crescents

1 large, firm ripe peach
1 8 ct. honey butter crescent dinner rolls (I did not know about this!)
6 Tbs. cinnamon sugar butter, divided (I did not know about this either: it is dangerous/deadly)
1 Tbs. pine nuts finely crushed

Preheat oven to 375. Peel peach and cut into 8 wedges. Separate crescent rolls and place triangles on work surface (waxed paper). Spread 2 teaspoons of butter on each triangle, place peach wedge on wide end, and roll up. Place seam side/point-y end down on baking sheet (spray with non-stick first), then bake. About 15 minutes, until golden brown. Crush pine nuts. Spread remaining butter over rolls, and sprinkle with nuts. Let stand five min. to cool, tell waiting admirers the thing is Really Hot on the inside so do not burn yourself like you would eating cheese pizza. Serve. Makes 8 servings.

You know what a peach is going to taste like in mid-winter, right? The same flavor as the carton it was shipped in. So I am going to try it with sliced apples instead.  Wouldn't this be wonderful with a scoop of vanilla icecream on top? I'm also leaving of the bland pine nuts at my house. Might sprinkle on pecans instead, but the pine nuts did not add anything ....
