For cheesecake enthusiasts, there’s no denying the allure of that rich, creamy dessert. It’s versatile, capable of adopting a myriad of flavors – from the indulgence of turtle and caramel to the freshness of strawberry and the tang of key lime.
However, crafting the perfect cheesecake often involves a laborious process involving springform pans, water baths, and prolonged chilling periods.
For those seeking the joy of cheesecake without the complexity, these 5-Ingredient Blueberry Cheesecake Rolls offer a delightful solution.
Ingredients:
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 (8 oz) tube of crescent roll dough
2/3 cup fresh blueberries
Simple Preparation:
Heat Up: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F, setting the stage for baking.
Mix: In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth. This mixture will serve as the creamy filling for your rolls, delivering that quintessential cheesecake flavor.
Prepare the Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the pre-cut seams. Arrange a triangle on a clean surface, positioning the wider end towards you and the point extending away.
Assemble: Spread a generous tablespoon of the cream cheese mix over the bottom third of the dough triangle, then carefully place two rows of blueberries atop the cream cheese layer.
Roll: Starting from the wide end nearest to you, roll the dough towards the pointed tip, enclosing the filling inside.
Bake: Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 10-13 minutes, or until they turn a delicious golden brown.
Serve and Enjoy: These Blueberry Cheesecake Rolls are best enjoyed warm, with the creamy filling and juicy blueberries wrapped in a crispy, golden crust. They capture the essence of a classic cheesecake, transformed into a convenient, finger-friendly form.
