Chocolate Dream Squares

Kraft is providing treats for my "The Sweetness of Forgetting" book launch parties this year, so I thought I'd include one of my favorite recipes using their new Philadelphia Indulgence, which is a new kind of chocolate that's a blend of real, luscious chocolate and rich, creamy PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese Spread. You can also use it on its own as a chocolatey dip for pretzels, apple slices, etc.

This is the easiest recipe you can imagine, but it looks like it took you a lot of time and effort! They remind me a bit of pain au chocolate, which are French croissant-like rolls wrapped around chocolate. Enjoy!

    Ingredients:
  • 2, 8-ounce cans of crescent rolls

  • 1, 8-ounce tub of Philadelphia Indulgence in the dark chocolate flavor

  • 2 Tbsp. sugar

Directions:

1. Remove Indulgence from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature.

2. Set oven to 350 and spray a 13x9 baking pan with nonstick spray.

3. Unroll one can of crescent rolls into pan and pinch all the seams together to create one rectangular pastry sheet.

4. Spread softened Indulgence evenly across the layer of pastry in the pan.

5. Unroll remaining can of crescent rolls over the Indulgence, gently pressing the seams together to create one rectangular pastry sheet. Sprinkle evenly with sugar.

6. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool slightly and cut into small squares.
