Maple Treats

Ingredients:

Sauce:

3/4 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup butter

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Filling:

8 ounces cream cheese

3 Tablespoons butter

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup shredded coconut

1 tube buttermilk biscuits (10 per tube)

Combine syrup and butter; cook over low heat until butter is melted. Stir in brown sugar until dissolved. Divide between two 9-inch pie plates. Cream together cream cheese and butter. Add powdered sugar and blend. Stir in coconut.

Separate biscuits in half. Place 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle of dough and wrap dough around it, pinching edges to seal. Set each biscuit, sealed edges up, 10 per pie pan. Bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Spoon syrup over biscuits and serve warm.

Filling lasts for a week in the refrigerator.
