These easy and yummy little
bundles might be just what you're looking for when the fam needs a
snack. Canned crescents rolls sometimes can be a cook's best friend! I
use them quite often for all kinds of things. Switch up the strawberries
if you want....double the whole thing if you're feeding a crowd. These
disappeared pretty quickly around here. I threw a few into IT Guy's
lunch and I think he even sneaked one for breakfast one day!
Strawberry Cheesecake Crescents
1 8 count package Pillsbury Crescent rolls ~ the "Grands" size
1 cup diced strawberries
4 ounces cream cheese ~ room temperature
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine the diced strawberries and the 2 tablespoons sugar. Set aside.
In another small bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.
Open the Crescent rolls and separate them into 8 pieces. Flatten out each roll with your fingers a little larger than normal.
Divide the cream cheese mixture between the rolls and spread evenly over the entire roll.
Place a heaping teaspoonful of the strawberries on top of the cream cheese at the widest part of the roll.
Fold the top over the berries and continue to roll and tuck dough over the berries, making a little package.
Place bundles on the prepared cookie sheet.
(Optional: Brush each bundle with a little heavy cream before baking)
Bake for 10 - 15 minutes or until lightly browned and dough is cooked.
Glaze with powdered sugar glaze, if desired or sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
