Looking for a sweet and simple dessert that combines the creamy richness of cheesecake with the fresh zing of blueberries? Look no further! These Blueberry Cheesecake Rolls are quick to make, utterly delicious, and perfect for a brunch, dessert, or just a special snack. Let’s dive into the recipe and get those ovens preheating!
Ingredients:
- Cream Cheese: 3 ounces, softened to room temperature
- Vanilla Extract: 1/2 teaspoon
- Powdered Sugar: 2.5 tablespoons
- Crescent Roll Dough: One 8-ounce tube (8 rolls)
- Fresh Blueberries: 2/3 cup
Directions:
- Preheat Oven: Start by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C), allowing it to warm up while you prepare the rolls.
- Mix Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with the vanilla extract and powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This forms the cheesecake component of your rolls.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. On the wider end of each triangle, spread a generous dollop of the cream cheese mixture.
- Add Blueberries: Sprinkle a few blueberries over the cream cheese on each dough triangle. The fresh blueberries will burst with flavor as they bake, creating a delightful contrast with the sweet, creamy filling.
- Roll and Bake: Roll up the triangles starting from the wider end with the filling, tucking the ingredients into a snug roll. Place each roll on a baking sheet, ensuring they don’t touch to allow even baking.
- Golden Perfection: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for about 10 to 13 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Blueberry Cheesecake Rolls warm from the oven. They are best enjoyed fresh, but will also keep well if covered and refrigerated for a day or two.
