Ingredients

8 Rhodes Texas™ Rolls, thawed
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 can apple pie filling (21oz.)
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup whole cranberry sauce
additional nuts, for garnish

Instructions

On a sprayed or floured surface, roll dough into a 12x14-inch rectangle. With a clean ruler, gently mark a 4 inch strip lengthwise down the center. Spread butter on entire surface. Place apple pie filling down center of dough.

Spoon cranberry sauce on top of filling. Top with 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. Make cuts from filling to dough edges at about 2-inch intervals. Alternating sides, fold strips at an angle across filling. Fold bottom edge towards filling and finish by stretching last strip and tucking under bottom end. Using both hands, lift onto a sprayed baking sheet. Cover with sprayed plastic wrap and let rise for 20-30 minutes.

Remove wrap and bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Place on rack to cool. Drizzle with icing and sprinkle with additional chopped nuts
