Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, add cream cheese, sugar and vanilla and mix well.

Unroll dough and place onto prepared baking sheet. Think of it as a clock and place 1 triangle at 12, 3, 6 and 9. Place the additional 4 triangles in between, overlapping. Gently press the overlapping pieces together.

Spread cream cheese mixture onto dough and top with cherries. Fold over the tips of the dough, from the outside in, and tuck the end under the dough. You may trim the dough before tucking it under.

Spread butter on top of dough with a pastry brush and sprinkle with decorating sugar.

Bake for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from oven, let stand for 5 minutes before serving warm topped with fresh mint.
