For The Cranberry Filling

In a small bowl, mix remaining water and cornstarch until combined then add to the cranberry mixture.
Continue stirring until cranberry mixture has thicken. Set aside to cool.
For The Cream Cheese Filling
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add sugar, egg yolk, vanilla, lemon juice and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
Making The Pastry Ring
Unroll crescent rolls and separate into precut triangles.
Place triangles on an ungreased baking sheet so that the wider end of the crescent is in the center forming the circle with about a 5 inch opening in the center and the smaller tip of the crescent is on the outside.
*When forming the circle, the wider ends of the crescents will overlap each other. Spread cream cheese mixture over the wide part of the crescents.
Spoon cranberry mixture filling on top of cream cheese mixture.
Fold the small tip of the crescent over and tuck under the wider part to secure forming the ring.
Bake for approximately 22-24 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven, let cool while making the glaze.
For The Glaze Drizzle
Using a one cup measuring cup, pour powdered sugar and milk together and stir until combined (might need more milk/sugar as desired).
Drizzle glaze over pastry ring, once cooled, and cut into desired portions. Enjoy!
