Ingredients

For the Crescents

  • 1 package crescent roll dough store-bought

For the Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
  • 2 tbsp hazelnuts chopped, toasted

For the Egg Wash

  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 tbsp milk

Instructions

Choco-Hazelnut Cheesecake Stuffed Crescents in Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and gently separate it into triangles as per the package instructions.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy using a whisk or electric mixer.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate hazelnut spread, swirling it through the cream cheese mixture to create a marbled effect.
  • Place roughly one tablespoon of the cheesecake filling onto the wide end of each crescent dough triangle. Sprinkle a pinch of chopped hazelnuts on top of the filling.
  • Carefully roll the dough from the wide end toward the point, encasing the filling completely. Pinch the edges gently to seal.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the beaten egg and milk. Brush this egg wash over each crescent to give them a shiny, golden crust once baked.
  • Place the stuffed crescents on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed. Remove and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Do not overfill the dough triangles to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
  • Toast hazelnuts lightly to enhance their flavor and crunch.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze unbaked crescents for up to 1 month.
