Funfetti Cheesecake Stuffed Crescent Rolls

Buttery crescent rolls are filled with an easy funfetti cheesecake spread, baked until golden, and drizzled with a vanilla glaze!!  Perfect for kids!

This one of a kind dessert is super easy to make, and FUN!  Rich, buttery, sweet, colorful, and perfect for getting your kids into the kitchen to help!

This is such a great, fun dessert idea… and one you can pull together in less than 30 minutes!  It’s fun, funfetti-inspired, and I just love that it’s something the kids can help with.  In fact, aside from the actual baking, my daughter made every other part of these 🙂

When TruMoo came to me with the idea to create fun snacks that go great with a glass of chocolate milk, I was excited to work with them!!  I love TruMoo’s quality, and they have something exciting to share… TruMoo Calcium Plus is NEW from TruMoo!  And TruMoo Calcium Plus low-fat milk has 50% more calcium than regular low-fat milk with the same great TruMoo taste.  I love that they use NO high fructose corn syrup, and I can feel great about serving their chocolate milk to my kids.

Making these funfetti cheesecake crescent rolls is so easy a 6 year old can do it!  Plus, they use just 7 common ingredients… you may have all of them at home right now.

From start to finish, these will take you about 25 minutes… how awesome is that?  My daughter had a blast making these!  I love cooking with her, seeing her enjoy making things 🙂  And of course, seeing her enjoy the final product!

The idea for these funfetti cheesecake stuffed crescent rolls came from my love of all things funfetti, and my love of crescent rolls.  I love to use them in savory dishes, like these chicken bacon and ranch rolls, but this was my first time using them for a sweet dish.  Let me tell you, it won’t be the last 🙂  The buttery-ness really goes well with sweet flavors!

If you wanted to, you could substitute the sugar for some agave or honey, depending on what you have on hand.

Imagine seeing a pan of those babies cooling… you won’t be able to resist grabbing one!

One of my favorite part is the multi-colored inside… it looks like tie-dye!

Fun to make, AND fun to eat!!

I hope you guys give these a try, and be sure to serve them with an ice cold glass of TruMoo Calcium Plus low-fat milk! 🙂
