Spoon a fourth of the pie filling over cream cheese. Fold lengthwise into thirds: pinch side seam and ends to seal. Place seam side down on greased baking sheets. With a sharp scissors, make several l” diagnonal cuts near the center of loaves. Cover and let rise in warm place until double about l hr. Bake at 375 for 20 mins. or untillightly browned. Combine glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm ooaves. Cool on wire racks. Refrigerate left overs.
