Instructions

Preheat oven to 350. and grease a 2 qt baking dish (8-inch square works well) with nonstick spray. You can also use a large deep dish pie plate. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth, about 2 minutes.

Add in sugar and eggs and mix until smooth. Then add milk, orange juice, and almond extract.

Place chopped croissants in a 2 quart greased baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of marmalade over croissants and then give it a few stirs to mix it in a bit.

Pour the cream cheese mixture over it and then cover with aluminum foil.

Bake for 40 minutes, then uncover and bake for about 15-20 more minutes or until a knife comes out clean.

Let it sit and cool slightly before serving. You can sprinkle it with powdered sugar before serving.
