Strawberry-Lemon Sweet-za

by American Girl Magazine

1 package refridgerated crescent roll dough

1 8 oz package cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup lemon curd (You can make lemon curd by whisking together 1 egg and 1/4 cup +
2 tbsp sugar until smooth. Stir in 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp juice from a lemon, lemon zest from 1
lemon and 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted. Cook in the microwave for one minute intervals,
stirring after each minute until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This
makes more than 1/4 cup so remember to only use 1/4 of a cup.)

3 tbsp sugar

1 cup strawberry slices

Directions: Carefully unroll the crescent roll dough on a greased cookie sheet. Flatten
dough and pinch and pinch the seams together. Bake dough at 400 for 15-20 min or until
golden brown. Let cool completely. In a bowl, mix together cream cheese, lemon curd and
sugar until smooth. Use a spoon to spread the mixture on top of the cooled crust. Arrange
the strawberry slices on top of the cream cheese mixture. Slice and serve.
