| ¼ | cup | Light cream cheese |

Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine orange marmalade and almond extract; set aside. Coat phyllo sheets, working with one sheet at a time, lightly with cooking spray; fold each in half lengthwise.
Lightly coat with cooking spray; cut crosswise into 4 rectangles (6½ x 4 ½-inches). Spread ½ teaspoon cream cheese on the short side of each phyllo strip; top with 1 teaspoon marmalade mixture.
Fold long sides in about ½ inch. Beginning with the marmalade-filled end, roll up jelly roll fashion. Place each roll, seam side down, on a baking sheet. Lightly coat tops of rolls with cooking spray. Bake for 7 minutes. Remove from pans immediately; sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cool completely on a wire rack. Place on a serving tray and garnish with orange rind, if desired. (42 calories,
