What you'll need
- two (11 ounce) packages Pillsbury Thin Crust Pizza Dough (22 ounces total)
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese, room temperature
- Mix one teaspoon of cinnamon into your sugar mixture before sprinkling over the top for a nice little twist.
- Don't have fresh berries? Skip the sugar in the filling and swap in ¾ cup of fresh jam instead.
How to make it
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray an 11-inch spring-form pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Place all berries, cream cheese, and 1 tablespoon of sugar into the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth (about 1 - 2 minutes).
Lightly flour a surface, and roll out both pieces of Pillsbury Thin Crust Pizza Dough, side by side.
Spread both dough pieces evenly with the cream cheese mixture, leaving a 2-inch border of dough around the cream cheese.
Roll up both dough sections into a log -- jelly-roll style.
Trim off the ends of each roll to make them neat, and then, Cut each roll into 15 1-inch pieces.
Place each piece of dough into prepared round or bundt pan, placing them side-by-side in concentric circles until entire pan is filled.
Sprinkle dough with remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and bake for 35 minutes or until bread is lightly golden.
Serve immediately.
