Almond Crescent Roll Cheese Cake

Inspiration surrounds Chef Azuki and this interesting recipe sprung out as a modification of one of the Scouts camping cakes.  Instead of using a dutch oven over a camp fire, Chef Azuki created a beautiful dessert for your home oven.  Almonds and almond extract give it that bit of sophistication needed for a party with adults and children.  Father's Day is this weekend and this easy dessert will be hit with everyone.  Happy Father's Day Papa BeaNs!
