Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Roll out the whole tube of crescent rolls and divide it into four rectangles.

Press the seams of the crescent rolls to seal them and prevent leaking.

Place 1 cup of cherry pie filling on the top half of each rectangle, dividing it evenly.

Fold the bottom half of each rectangle over the filling and press the edges to seal.

Use a fork to press the edges for a decorative border.

Bake in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, checking after 10 minutes for golden color.

While baking, prepare the glaze by mixing about half a cup of powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons of milk until desired consistency is reached.

Drizzle the glaze over the baked turnovers once they are done.
