Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Breakfast Rolls

Another recipe for breakfast for my coworkers! This time it was Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Breakfast rolls. I mistakenly bought pizza dough instead of the seamless crossiant dough, but it worked out so much better than I imagined. Waymon and I fought for the leftovers the next day. These are extremely easy to make, kids can help make them and they're easy to transfer! 

INGREDIENTS 

• 2 cans of pre-made pizza dough
• 2 (8 oz) block cream cheese, room temperature
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 4 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup ( give or take ) chocolate chips
• 1/2cup peanut butter chips * optional
• 4 tablespoons of butter * melted   

DIRECTIONS

1. Using a medium bowl with a hand mixer, beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together until smooth. 
2. 
    
   
   
3. Unroll the crescent roll sheet and stretch dough out to the shape of a rectangle.
   
4. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent sheet, leaving a gap at the edge about ½ inch.
   
   
   
   
5. Sprinkle your chocolate chips/ peanut butter chips on top of cream cheese.
   
    
   
   
6. Roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap.
   
7. Repeat for steps 2-5 for the next pizza crust.
8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
9. Preheat oven to 350°.
10. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
11. Slice the crescent roll into ¼" slices. Bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
12. Transfer to wire rack and brush with melted butter.
    
    
    
13. Eat warm or room temperature.
