CINNAMON-SUGAR SWEET POTATO PASTRIES
We always have leftover mashed sweet potatoes after our Thanksgiving feast. I take what's left to make an indulgent filling for sweet potato empanadas. Convenient crescent roll dough makes this recipe easy as pie. -Sarah Vasques, Milford, New Hampshire

- Preheat oven to 375°. In a small bowl, combine sweet potato, cream cheese, brown sugar and orange zest. Unroll crescent dough and separate into 4 rectangles; press perforations to seal. Cut each rectangle into 4 triangles. Repeat with remaining dough. Place 1 teaspoon potato filling in center of each triangle. Fold dough over filling and pinch seams to seal., Place 2 in. apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Brush pastries with butter; coat with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
