These Cheesecake Crescent Rolls are a fun twist on the usual ham and cheese crescent rollups! They make the perfect appetizer or dessert recipe because they’re quick and easy to put together and melt in your mouth! I love serving mine with a big dollop of whipped cream to balance out all that cheesecake filling!
You ready for a sweet and salty dessert recipe? Well, you’re in luck, because these cheesecake crescent rolls have both features. This is a quick and easy dessert recipe, that is actually pretty healthy too. Serve these at the end of the meal to your family or friends, and everyone will be satisfied. They’re dessert…but they aren’t! Note: A “healthy” dessert is one you don’t have to feel guilty about eating 😉
