Company’s at the door and you need something impressive in under 30 minutes? These are your secret weapon.

Cream cheese gets mixed with sugar, vanilla, and a squeeze of fresh lemon, then spooned onto rolled-out crescent dough triangles.

Fold, roll, bake. That’s it. In about 12 minutes you’ve got 16 golden, flaky little pastries with a warm, tangy-sweet cream cheese center that tastes like you fussed way more than you did.

Five ingredients. One bowl. Zero stress.

Kitchen Tips

  • Roll the crescent dough thinner than it comes out of the can so you get a crispier, more delicate pastry
  • Use clear vanilla extract if you can find it. It keeps the filling bright white instead of speckling it
  • Let the cream cheese come to room temperature before mixing so there are no lumps
  • Watch them closely in the oven. They go from golden to burnt fast at the 10-minute mark

Directions

Mix all except rolls together in bowl.

Seperate rolls, and roll them out thinner (like pie crust).

Place 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling in middle of long edge.

Fold corners up and roll up remaining flap.

Bake at 350℉ (180℃) F until brown (10-12 minutes).

These are quick, easy and great for unexpected company.

They look better if you use clear vanilla.
