Take-out Tuesday, Blueberry Rolls with Lemon Glaze
After a busy weekend
and a late night playing sports on Sunday,
I wanted to surprise the boys with a breakfast treat
to get them going Monday morning
and start their week off right
A plate of lemon glazed blueberry rolls ought to do it!
These are easy to make too, a Crescent Dough Sheet,
cream cheese, vanilla, blueberries,
sugar {already in the mixing bowl} and an egg yolk
First combine the softened cream cheese with sugar and vanilla
Then mix in egg yolk
Unroll dough and put it on a piece of parchment paper
{you can use crescent roll dough also,
just pinch the perforations
so you have a large rectangle}
Spread cream cheese over dough in an even layer
My cream cheese is still a little lumpy,
but it won’t matter once it’s baked
Place blueberries evenly on top of cream cheese
Roll the dough from the long side,
using the parchment to help you roll,
and roll into a log
Wrap the paper over the dough and place in the refrigerator
for several hours or the freezer for 20-30 minutes
Cut dough into 10 slices and place them cut side up
on a baking sheet lined with fresh parchment paper
Top each slice with 2-3 blueberries
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes
or until dough is cooked and golden
Let rolls cool while you make the lemon glaze
Stir powdered sugar with lemon juice to make a glaze
that is thick yet still able to be drizzled
Put rolls on a plate and slowly pour glaze over them
