Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package of crescent roll dough (store-bought)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup cinnamon sugar (for dusting)
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the Rolls: Roll out the crescent dough and cut it into small squares or triangles. Place a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each piece of dough. Fold the dough around the filling, sealing the edges tightly.
- Fry the Rolls: Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the filled dough pieces to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Coat and Serve: Toss the fried rolls in cinnamon sugar while they are still warm. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the cream cheese filling.
- Ensure the oil temperature is maintained for even frying.
