Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Dough & Fruit
- 1 8 oz tube of crescent roll dough
- 2/3 cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure an even baking temperature and a golden-brown crust.
- Mix the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and creamy without lumps.
- Prepare the Dough: Open the tube of crescent roll dough and separate it into the 8 pre-cut triangular sections provided.
- Assemble the Rolls: Spread about one tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture on the wider end of each triangle. Then, place two rows of fresh blueberries (approximately 5-6 berries) over the cream cheese layer.
- Roll the Dough: Carefully roll the dough starting from the wide end towards the pointed end, enclosing the filling securely within the crescent roll.
- Bake: Arrange the assembled rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet with enough space between each to expand. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes, or until the rolls turn golden brown and fully cooked.
- Serve: Enjoy the rolls warm to best appreciate the creamy filling and juicy blueberries inside a crisp crescent exterior. Optionally, dust with additional powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- Use fresh blueberries for the juiciest and best flavor; frozen berries may release too much moisture and affect the dough texture.
- Do not overfill the rolls to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
- Allow cream cheese to soften at room temperature for easier mixing and spreading.
- The crescent roll dough can be replaced with puff pastry for a flakier texture if desired.
- Dusting with powdered sugar is optional but adds a nice finishing touch and sweetness.
- The rolls are best served warm but can be stored in an airtight container and lightly reheated the next day.
