Indulge in the perfect blend of creamy, nutty, and sweet flavors with these Cream Cheese Pecan Crescent Rolls.

Ingredients:

8 oz refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 cup pecan pieces
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
4 oz cream cheese, chilled
6 tablespoons butter, melted
½ cup cream soda

Preparation:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and thoroughly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, mix together the pecan pieces, brown sugar, cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter until well combined.
Cut the chilled cream cheese into 8 equal squares.
Open the crescent roll dough and carefully separate it into individual triangles.
Place a cube of cream cheese and a spoonful of the pecan mixture at the wide end of each dough triangle, then roll up from the wide end to the tip, making sure to seal the edges well.
Arrange the rolls, seam side down, in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the remaining melted butter evenly over the rolls and sprinkle any leftover pecan mixture on top for added flavor and texture.
Gently pour the cream soda around the rolls, allowing it to pool at the bottom of the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the tops are just starting to crisp.
Serve warm, enjoying the gooey, caramelized goodness of the filling and the light, airy texture of the dough.

Bonus Tip:
For an extra touch of decadence, drizzle the finished rolls with a simple powdered sugar glaze. Just mix ½ cup powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of milk until smooth, and drizzle over the rolls while they’re still warm. This adds an extra layer of sweetness and makes them even more irresistible.

Conclusion:
These Cream Cheese Pecan Crescent Rolls are a true crowd-pleaser, offering a perfect balance of textures and flavors in every bite. The combination of cream cheese, pecans, and brown sugar wrapped in soft crescent dough, all topped with a sweet, buttery sauce, makes for an unforgettable treat. Whether you’re making these for a special occasion or just because, they’re sure to become a favorite in your recipe collection. Enjoy them warm, fresh out of the oven, and watch as they quickly disappear!
