Ingredients
  

  • 1 tube crescent roll dough 8 count
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 1-2 tablespoons sugar optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Roll out crescent dough triangles onto a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  3. Spread on tablespoon softened cream cheese over each triangle except for about an inch from the triangles point.  For extra sweetness, add 1-2 tablespoons to the softened cream cheese before spreading.

    • Hi there! Yes, puff pastry will work. It will turn out a little more flaky which might be even better. 🙂 Just follow the cooking directions on the puff pastry as it might bake faster or slower than my original recipe with crescents. I’d love to hear how they turn out!

  1. I wouldn’t be sure about the cram cheese either but I would be willing to give t a try as well. My daughter found a recipe for croissants earlier which we are making next week so I’ll try this filling then.
