PEANUT BUTTER & CHOCOLATE CHIP CREAM CHEESE COOKIES
PEANUT BUTTER & CHOCOLATE CHIP CREAM CHEESE COOKIES
1 can seamless crescent rolls (or pinch together seams on a regular can, or make your own)
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
3/4 C mixed peanut butter and chocolate chips
Beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.
Unroll the crescent roll sheet onto lightly floured surface. . Stretch the dough out, I use a rolling pin to do this, then trim the edges to give it a good rectangular shape. A pizza cutter is great for trimming edges of dough.
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent sheet, leaving a gap at the edge about 1/2 inch. Sprinkle your chips on top of cream cheese – press them in lightly to aid in rolling. Roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap. Place in freezer for at least 2 hours it won’t get really solid as the cream cheese mix won’t freeze hard. When chilled preheat oven to 350°. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (prevents sticking and helps in cleanup).
Slice the crescent roll into 1/4" slices. They won’t keep the precise round shape, but that is fine! Bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown. Cool on the parchment paper or wire rack
