Preheat oven to 350°. In a 2-quart bowl, combine cream cheese, 1/3 cup powdered sugar, egg yolk and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Unroll crescent dough and reserve 4 triangles for decoration. Separate remaining dough into 12 triangles and arrange on 15-inch round stone with points toward center. Roll dough into a 14-inch circle. Cut out a 3-inch hole in center. Spread cream cheese mixture over dough to within 1/2-inch of edges. Top with pie filling. Roll remaining dough into a rectangle. Cut lengthwise into 12 strips. Twist strips and place in a spoke like fashion over filling. Press ends to seal at center and outer edges. Brush with egg white. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly.
