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.
