Ingredients
- 3 oz cream cheese (1/3 less fat), softened
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 tube (8 oz) reduced-fat crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
- ⅔ cup fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Prepare the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the seams.
- Fill the Rolls: Lay a triangle with the shorter side facing you and the point away. Spread a layer of the cream cheese mixture on the bottom third of each dough triangle. Arrange two rows of fresh blueberries on top of the cream cheese filling.
- Roll the Dough: Starting from the edge nearest you, roll the dough towards the tip, enclosing the blueberry and cream cheese filling.
- Bake the Rolls: Place each roll on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10–13 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving.
Tips
- For extra sweetness, dust the rolls with powdered sugar before serving.
- Use chilled cream cheese for a thicker filling that holds better during baking.
