Instructions
- Beat the butter and cream cheese until smooth in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the flour and salt, and mix in until combined.
- Divide dough into half.
- Wrap each portion in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour, or until easy to handle.
- Once chilled, roll out each dough portion between 2 sheets of waxed paper into a 12-inch circle. Remove the top sheet of waxed paper.
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon for the filling. Set aside.
- Brush each circle with 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- Sprinkle each with 3 tablespoons of cinnamon sugar and 2 tablespoons of chopped pecans.
- Cut each piece into 12 wedges.
- Roll up each wedge from the wide end; place pointed side down 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Curve ends to form a crescent shape.
- Bake at 350°F for 22-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove to wire racks.
- Brush with remaining melted butter, and sprinkle with remaining cinnamon-sugar.
Notes
- Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe. If using unsalted butter, increase the salt to 1/2 teaspoon.
- Cream cheese: I highly recommend using full-fat cream cheese in this recipe.
- Pecans: I recommend using unsalted pecans. You can also toast the pecans before using. You can omit the nuts if you prefer.
