Ingredients
1 package crescent roll dough
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
1 tbsp lemon zest
1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Unroll the crescent dough, pressing the seams together to form a flat sheet.
- In a bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the dough.
- Scatter the blueberries and sprinkle the lemon zest over the cream cheese layer.
- Roll the dough into a log, starting from one end.
- Cut the log into 1-inch rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and bubbly.
- Cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them before adding to the dough to avoid excess moisture.
For best results, enjoy the rolls fresh out of the oven. They can be reheated to restore their flakiness.
You can substitute blueberries with other berries like raspberries or strawberries.
