Need a quick and easy dessert? Try these Strawberry Cheesecake Rolls! Crescent rolls spread with a cream cheese mixture and a scoop of strawberries rolled together and baked. Delicious!

Ingredients:
1 pkg. (8 oz.) reduced-fat crescent rolls
4 oz. light cream cheese
2 Tbsp. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 c. strawberries, chopped small
1-2 tsp. Truvia sweetener or sugar, to sweeten strawberries

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.  Set aside.

Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla in a small mixing bowl.

Open crescent roll package and separate each into triangles.  Pat out each triangle with fingertips to thin out a bit.

Spread a teaspoon or so of the cream cheese mixture onto each triangle.  Then place a small scoop of strawberries on the wider edge of the triangle.  Roll up each crescent roll, starting on wide edge, tucking in edges over the strawberries and then roll down to the point of the crescent, creating a little bundle.

Place on prepared cookie sheet and repeat until all strawberry cheesecake rolls are made.  Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until dough is cooked through and golden brown.  

Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar if desired.
