Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1/2 cup (115 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (75 grams) fresh blueberries
Sweeteners:
- 1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons (25 grams) granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) melted butter
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 375F (190C) and cover a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl, blending until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
- Carefully unfold the crescent roll dough, separating each triangle on a clean surface.
- Apply a delicate layer of cream cheese mixture across each triangular dough section, ensuring even coverage.
- Generously distribute fresh blueberries over the cream cheese layer, spreading them evenly to maximize flavor distribution.
- Commence rolling each triangle from the widest edge, gently tucking and rolling to create a compact pastry shape.
- Position the rolled pastries onto the prepared baking sheet, maintaining slight separation between each roll.
- Delicately brush the exterior of each roll with melted butter, creating a golden surface.
- Sprinkle remaining sugar across the buttered rolls, ensuring a sweet, caramelized finish.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until the pastries transform into a rich, golden brown color with bubbling filling.
- Remove from oven and allow rolls to cool momentarily, preserving their delicate texture.
- Serve warm to experience the optimal blend of creamy filling and flaky pastry.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is completely softened at room temperature for smooth, lump-free filling that spreads easily.
- Gently pat blueberries dry before adding to prevent excess moisture from making the rolls soggy.
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free crescent roll dough and check all ingredient labels carefully.
- Experiment with different berries like raspberries or strawberries for unique flavor variations that complement the creamy filling.
