Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Dough and Fruit
- 1 (8 oz) tube of crescent roll dough
- 2/3 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the rolls.
- Prepare Filling: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring an even sweet flavor throughout.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangular pieces as per package instructions.
- Assemble Rolls: Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over each dough triangle. Then, evenly distribute fresh blueberries on top of the filling.
- Roll Up: Starting from the wider end of each triangle, carefully roll the dough towards the narrow end, creating a spiral shape, and place each rolled piece onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a non-stick surface.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the rolls for 10-13 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- For extra flavor, sprinkle a little cinnamon or lemon zest into the cream cheese mixture before spreading.
- Use fresh blueberries for best texture; frozen can be used but may release more moisture.
- Allow rolls to cool slightly before serving to let the filling set.
- These rolls can be served warm or at room temperature, and pair wonderfully with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of glaze.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
