Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cream together cream cheese, almond extract, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer and set aside.
• Separate each biscuit in half so there will be 16 total slices. I started doing this with a bread knife but actually found it easier to find the center and pull each biscuit apart using my hands. Place the biscuits on a large baking sheet lined with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper.
• Use a small glass or the bottom of a 1/4 cup measuring cup dipped in sugar and press down to indent the middle of each biscuit.
• Spread about a teaspoon of cream cheese on each biscuit and then add pie filling. Add about a teaspoon of cherries or about three cherries worth to the top.
• Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 12-14 minutes, until lightly browned and cooked.
• While the biscuits are baking, whisk together the glaze ingredients in a small dish. If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more milk until you get the consistency to drizzle.
• Take them out of the oven, let cool, and drizzle your icing over each roll. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
