Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet puff pastry
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup strawberry jam
  • 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Optional Substitutions:

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute the cream cheese with a plant-based alternative like cashew cream cheese.
  • You can swap the strawberry jam for other fruit jams like raspberry or blueberry to switch up the flavor.
  • If you’re looking to make this recipe gluten-free, try using a gluten-free puff pastry sheet.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 2: Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure it’s laid flat without any creases.

Step 3: In a small bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. This mixture will be the base for your rolls.

Step 4: Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the puff pastry sheet, leaving about an inch of space at the edges.

Step 5: Spoon the strawberry jam over the cream cheese, adding a few dollops here and there. Lightly spread it out, ensuring that every roll will have a bit of strawberry goodness.

Step 6: Roll the puff pastry into a log, and carefully cut the rolled pastry into 6-8 pieces.

Step 7: In a separate bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, cinnamon, and granulated sugar. Sprinkle this crumble mixture over the tops of each roll to add a delightful crunch.

Step 8: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Let the rolls cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients: For the best flavor, ensure your cream cheese is fresh and your puff pastry is cold when working with it.
  • Adjust sweetness: If you like a sweeter pastry, feel free to add a little extra powdered sugar to the cream cheese mixture.
  • Serve warm: These rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven or reheated to enjoy the melty cream cheese center and warm pastry.
