Ingredients
  

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)

1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Cream Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and creamy, then gently fold in the fresh raspberries. Be cautious not to crush them too much; you want some whole pieces for texture.

      Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a lightly floured surface and separate it into triangles along the perforated edges.

        Fill the Dough: Take one triangle of dough and spoon about a tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the center. Carefully fold the corners of the dough over the filling to create a little pocket. Ensure the filling is sealed inside to prevent leakage while baking. Repeat with the remaining triangles and filling.

          Bake: Arrange the filled bites on the prepared baking sheet, spaced apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown.

            Cool and Garnish: Once baked, remove the raspberry cream cheese bites from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Optional: Top with additional fresh raspberries and sprinkle with chopped mint leaves for a burst of freshness just before serving.

              Serve: Enjoy these delightful bites warm or at room temperature. Perfect for brunch, dessert, or a sweet snack!
