Directions for Strawberry Crescent Rolls
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into individual triangles.
Spread a spoonful of strawberry preserves on the wide end of each triangle.
Optional: Add a thin layer of cream cheese and sliced fresh strawberries for added texture and flavor.
Carefully roll each triangle from the wide end to the narrow tip, encasing the strawberry filling.
Place rolls on the baking sheet, leaving enough space for them to expand.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Serve warm and enjoy!

Helpful Tips for the Best Strawberry Crescent Rolls
Preventing leaks: Be careful not to overfill the crescent rolls. Too much filling can cause the strawberry preserves to spill out during baking.
For a creamier roll: Try adding a thin layer of softened cream cheese before spreading the strawberry preserves. The cream cheese adds a rich, tangy contrast to the sweet strawberry filling.
Extra fruity: Add thinly sliced fresh strawberries to each roll before baking for a burst of fresh flavor.
Customize it: Feel free to swap out the strawberry preserves with any other flavor you like. Raspberry, blueberry, or even apricot preserves would work beautifully. You can even go savory with cheese and herbs for a completely different spin.
Storage and Leftovers
If you happen to have leftovers (though they tend to disappear quickly!), here’s how to store them:
Room temperature: Store the crescent rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
