Ingredients
Crescent Rolls:
- 8 ounces refrigerated crescent rolls
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup blueberries
Streusel Topping:
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, cold
- 2 tablespoons sugar
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent dough onto the prepared baking sheet, separating it into 8 triangles.
- Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese mixture.
- Fill Crescent Rolls: Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the filling onto each crescent triangle, spreading it slightly along the length of the dough.
- Roll Up Crescent Rolls: Starting from the wider end, roll up each crescent triangle, tucking in the edges to seal the filling inside.
- Prepare Streusel Topping: In another bowl, combine the flour, cold butter, and sugar for the streusel topping. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix until crumbly.
- Top and Bake: Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the filled crescent rolls. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the filling is set.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the crescent rolls to cool slightly before serving.
- Enjoy: Serve these delicious Blueberry Cheesecake Crescent Rolls warm and enjoy the perfect balance of flaky pastry, creamy cheesecake filling, and burst of juicy blueberries.
