Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) refrigerated crescent rolls
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese
- 2/3 cup (105 grams) blueberries
Sweeteners and Flavoring:
- 2 tablespoons (25 grams) sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla
Streusel Topping:
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) flour
- 2 tablespoons (28 grams) butter
- 2 tablespoons (25 grams) sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by heating to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal non-stick performance.
- Carefully separate the crescent dough into individual triangular sections, ensuring clean edges.
- Craft a luscious filling by blending cream cheese with sugar and vanilla extract until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
- Delicately incorporate fresh blueberries into the cream cheese mixture, distributing them evenly without crushing.
- Position approximately one-quarter cup of the fruity cream cheese filling near the wider end of each crescent triangle.
- Expertly roll each triangle from the broader base, gently folding and pinching the edges to create a secure seal that prevents filling from escaping.
- Develop a complementary streusel topping by combining flour, softened butter, and sugar, using fingertips to create a crumbly texture.
- Generously sprinkle the streusel mixture across the surface of the assembled crescent rolls, ensuring consistent coverage.
- Transfer the prepared rolls to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, watching for a light golden-brown coloration that indicates perfect doneness.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool briefly before serving, allowing the filling to set and flavors to meld.
Notes
- Customize fillings by swapping blueberries with raspberries, strawberries, or chocolate chips for variety.
- Ensure cream cheese is softened at room temperature to achieve a smooth, lump-free mixture that blends easily.
- Prevent soggy bottoms by not overfilling the crescent triangles and sealing edges completely to keep filling contained.
- Create a gluten-free version by using gluten-free crescent roll dough and checking ingredient compatibility.
