Description

Simple, sweet, and tangy bites made with crescent rolls, cream cheese, and cranberry sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, cranberry sauce, sugar, and cinnamon until smooth.
  3. Unroll the crescent roll dough. Separate the dough into individual triangles.
  4. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
  5. Roll each triangle up tightly, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the point. Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can use jellied cranberry sauce if whole berry is not available.
  • For a richer flavor, lightly brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter before baking.
