Ingredients:
Filling:
1 cup fresh blueberries ๐Ÿซ

1/4 cup sugar ๐Ÿฌ

1 tbsp lemon juice ๐Ÿ‹

1 tsp cornstarch ๐ŸŒฝ

8 oz cream cheese, softened ๐Ÿง€

1/4 cup powdered sugar ๐Ÿš

1 tsp vanilla extract ๐Ÿฆ

Dough:
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough ๐Ÿฅ

1/4 cup melted butter ๐Ÿงˆ

Topping:
Powdered sugar, for dusting ๐Ÿš

Directions:
Step 1: Prepare Blueberry Filling
In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries release their juice (about 5 minutes).

Stir in cornstarch and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens (about 1-2 minutes). Once thickened, remove from heat and let it cool.

Step 2: Make Cheesecake Mixture
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This will be your cheesecake filling.

Step 3: Assemble Rolls
Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC).

Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles.

Spread a thin layer of the cheesecake mixture on each dough triangle, leaving a small border around the edges.

Add a spoonful of the blueberry filling on top of the cheesecake mixture.

Step 4: Roll and Bake
Carefully roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end. Place the rolls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the tops of the rolls with the melted butter.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.

Step 5: Finish and Serve
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the rolls cool slightly.

Dust with powdered sugar just before serving.

Pro Tips for Perfect Blueberry Cheesecake Rolls:
Use Fresh Blueberries: Fresh blueberries work best for the filling. If using frozen, make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess liquid.

Add a Zesty Twist: For a more vibrant flavor, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the cheesecake mixture.

Serve Warm: These rolls are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven. They make a perfect breakfast or dessert treat.

Make Ahead: You can prepare the filling and cheesecake mixture in advance. When youโ€™re ready to bake, just assemble and bake.
