Apple Cinnamon Cream Cheese Bites Our Best Bites

This Recipe Came from Savoring the Season's with our Best Bites. I choose it because it looked easy to make and I had most of the ingredients for the recipe besides the French dough.   

Ingredients:

4 ounces cream cheese
6 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 medium to large tart green apple(We used a red apple instead of a tart green apple)
1 tablespoon flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 roll ready to bake refrigerated french bread dough(We used my mom's Pizza crust recipe)

Glaze
1 tablespoon melted butter
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1-2 tablespoons milk (to reach desired consistency)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit
2. Beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and almond extract in a medium-sized bowl until light and fluffy.

3. Toss apple pieces with flour, sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon in another bowl until they are well coated

4. On a lightly floured surface, roll bread dough into a 9 x 12 inch rectangle. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife cut the longer side into 4 equal rows. Cut the shorter side into 3 equal rows creating twelve 3 X 3-inch squares. (With the different dough we used we rolled it 1/4 inch thick They turned out having to much dough, we should have rolled them to an 1/8 of an inch. and they would have turned out to be a better ratio dough to filling.)  
5. Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray. Place 1 square of bread dough in each of the cups.

6. Evenly distribute cream cheese mixture into the dough-lined muffin cups and spread out evenly. Top with apple mixture
7. Bake 12-20 minutes or until dough is light golden brown. Remove from oven and let pan cool 5-10 minutes Use a fork to carefully remove apple bites from the pan and place on a cooling rack.

8. For glaze: Whisk together glaze ingredients and drizzle over each apple bite.
