Orange Cherry Almond Pinwheels

Ingredients

¼ cup butter, salted or unsalted 1 tablespoon almond paste 1 egg 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg 1 tablespoon All Purpose Flour 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated seamless dough sheet ½ cup dried tart cherries 1/3 cup Hershey's white baking chips 1 large orange peel, grated peel ¼ cup plus 1 tablespoon almonds, sliced ½ cup powdered sugar 2 tablespoons whipping cream 1/8 teaspoon pure almond extract

Directions

Soften butter and beat with almond paste and egg with electric hand mixer until smooth. Beat more with nutmeg and flour. Unroll the dough sheet and press into 14 x 8-inch rectangle.

Sprinkle the cherries, baking chips, 2 teaspoons of the orange peel and 1/4 cup almonds over buttered dough then press in lightly.

Roll up dough then press uncovered end into roll to seal. Wrap roll in waxed paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Prepare cookie sheet by lightly spraying with non-stick cooking spray. With a serrated knife, cut roll into 8 slices and place on cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until light brown in color. Meanwhile, mix powdered sugar, cream and almond extract in a small bowl then spoon over hot rolls spreading evenly. Sprinkle with remaining almonds and orange peel. Serve warm or cold.
