Fruit Turnovers

Ingredients:

1 can refrigerator biscuits (10 biscuits)

1 15-ounce of fruit, such as peaches or pears

1/2 cup white sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 Tablespoon butter, cut into 10 pieces

Glaze -

1 cup powdered sugar

1 1/2 milk or half and half

Instructions

1.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2.  Put a piece of parchment paper on a cookie sheet and set aside.

3.  Next, pat each biscuit into a 4-inch circle.  

4.  Drain the liquid from the fruit and chop into little pieces.

5.  Place about 1 tablespoon of the chopped fruit into the middle of each biscuit.  Sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar mixture.  Dot each with a piece of butter.

6.  Fold each biscuit over into a half circle.  Press with a fork around the edges to seal.  

7.  Using a spatula transfer the turnovers to the cookie sheet.

8.  Bake 10-12 minutes.

Glaze

1.  While the turnovers are baking, mix the powdered sugar with the milk until smooth.  If the icing is too thick add just a drop or two more of milk.

2.  Once turnovers are baked let them cool a few minutes before glazing.

3.  Drizzle glaze over turnovers and  let cool till room temperature.   Enjoy!
