Blueberry Rolls
- 1 can Crescent dough sheet or 8 ct. can crescent roll dough
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 1/4 cups fresh blueberries
Lemon glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice*
Blueberry Rolls
Combine cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla
Stir in egg yolk
Unroll crescent dough sheet onto a piece of parchment paper, sealing perforations if necessary
Spread cream cheese in an even layer over dough rectangle
Top cream cheese with 1 cup of blueberries spaced evenly
Starting with the long side, roll dough into a log, using the paper to help if desired. Once your log is rolled, wrap it in the paper and chill for 2 hours in the refrigerator or 20-30 minutes in the freezer**
Line a baking sheet with fresh parchment paper
Cut dough into 10 even slices and place cut side up on lined baking sheet
Press 2-3 berries into the top of each roll
Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until dough is cooked and golden
Let rolls cool and then put them on a plate pour glaze over them
Reheat rolls in the microwave for 20 seconds if desired
Lemon Glaze
Stir lemon juice into the powdered sugar, 1 Tbsp at a time until glaze has the desired consistency. You want it to be thick, yet thin enough to pour over the rolls
Cover rolls and store at room temperature or in the refrigerator
*use only enough lemon juice to make a thick but pourable glaze. If your glaze is too thin add more sugar, if it's too thick add more lemon juice, adjusting until you get the right consistency
**dough roll will be very sticky and hard to cut without chilling it first
