Ingredients
Crescent Dough
- 1 package crescent dough (about 8 oz)
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the dough: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles along the perforations on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Make the filling: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the rolls: Spread a teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each crescent triangle. Top with a few pieces of chopped fresh strawberries near the wider edge.
- Roll the dough: Starting at the wide end, carefully roll each triangle toward the narrow point, encasing the filling inside. Place the rolls on the baking sheet with the point side down to keep them from unrolling during baking.
- Bake the rolls: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed.
- Cool and serve: Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
- You can drizzle melted chocolate or sprinkle powdered sugar over the rolls after baking for extra sweetness.
- These rolls are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- If cream cheese is too soft to work with, chill it slightly before mixing.
