      Yield: 96 servings

      1 lb Unsalted butter; softened
      8 oz Cream cheese; softened
      1 c  Sugar
      1 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 ts Kosher salt
  3 1/2 c  Flour
      2 ts Ground cinnamon
      1 c  Raspberry jam
      1 c  Fine chopped walnuts
      1 lg Egg
           +=MIXED WITH=+
      1 tb Heavy cream; for egg wash

  Combine butter, cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, vanilla,
  and salt in a bowl and beat on medium-high speed of a
  mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add flour, and beat
  until just combined. Transfer to a work surface and form
  into a ball; halve ball and then cut each half into
  quarters. Shape each piece into a small disk and wrap
  individually in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 1 hour.

  Set oven @ 350 F/175 C.

  Stir together remaining sugar and cinnamon in a bowl;
  set aside. Working with 1 disk at a time, transfer to a
  floured work surface, and using a rolling pin, roll into
  an 8" circle; using an offset spatula, spread 2 tbsp.
  jam over circle, sprinkle with 2 tbsp. walnuts, and 1
  tbsp. cinnamon-sugar. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut
  each circle into 12 wedges; starting from each wide end,
  roll up wedges to form crescent rolls.

  Transfer rolls to parchment paper-lined baking sheets,
  brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with more
  cinnamon-sugar; bake until golden brown, about 25
  minutes.
