Chocolate Hazelnut Cheesecake Rolls
Ingredients:
3 oz cream cheese, softened
2 1/2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon hazelnut extract (optional)
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (e.g., Nutella)
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or chopped hazelnuts
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and hazelnut extract until smooth.
Roll out the crescent roll dough and separate into rectangles, pressing seams together.
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the rectangles. Add a thin layer of chocolate hazelnut spread and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips or hazelnuts.
Roll each rectangle into a log and cut into swirls. Place the swirls on the baking sheet.
Brush with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
