Easy Cream Cheese Strudel

A classic bakery favorite but made using Crescent Rolls! This heavenly breakfast treat will be on repeat!

Easy Cream Strudel with Crescent Rolls

I was making Easy Apple Strudel and decided I wanted to make several other flavors at the same time. In the process of doing that I ended up with more cream cheese filling than I needed. On a whim I spread it down the middle of a Crescent Roll and hoped for the best!

I was pleasantly surprised how well it turned out and tasted! I had only guessed on the measurements of the cream cheese mixture based on my experience with other recipes, so I was nervous. It was so fantastic I had to get it out of the house as fast I could. It was delicious! That’s how this Easy Cream Cheese Strudel was born.

If you like breakfast Danishes, then I think you’ll like Crescent Roll Cheese Danish and Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish , too!

What You’ll Need for the Strudel

1 (8 oz) tube Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

1 (8 oz) Cream Cheese, Softened

1 cup Powdered Sugar

1 Egg, Beaten

Sugar

And the Icing

1/2 cup Powdered Sugar

1 tbsp Milk

How to Easily Make Cream Cheese Strudel

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Unroll 1 (8 oz) tube Pillsbury Crescent Rolls onto parchment paper lined baking sheet. Press the seams together and straighten edges out.

Using a pizza cutter, cut 1″ strips down both sides of the dough, leaving about 3″ of uncut dough in the center for the filling.

Beat together 1 (8 oz) softened cream cheese and 1 cup powdered sugar.

Spread up and down the center where the dough wasn’t cut.

Wrap sliced strips over the filling, overlapping them like a braid.

Brush outside of the dough with beaten egg. (You won’t use entire egg)

Generously sprinkle the top with sugar.

Bake for 15 minutes.

Make the icing by whisking together 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 1 tbsp milk. Drizzle over the strudel.
