mid-week meal share: blueberry croissant bake

I present to you: blueberry croissant bake, a warm and yummy anytime meal. I made it for breakfast but have it for dinner for all I care!

I was pretty nervous to make this because of how shitty the last 'bake' I made turned out, but it just looked so good in the video that I just couldn't resist. Seriously, people keep posting these recipes but I am like 98% certain I'm the only one hangry enough to try them. So, if you've tried any of the recipes thus far, you can thank my glamorous friends on Facebook.

Cost effective: yepskerdoodles! $9.

Easy to concoct: absotootly!

Nutritious: sure.

Here's what you're gonna need to gather:

1 tube crescent rolls (2 per my adjustments)

¾ cup bluberries

8 oz/1 package cream cheese

¼ cup milk

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

⅔ cup sugar

When I first saw this recipe it seemed like there was a lot of 'sauce'; in the end it's clear that it is supposed to mimic the cream filling of a cheese danish. Me being nervous about the recipe being ruined, I used a 13x9 in dish, added 4 extra croissants but used the same amount of sauce.

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.

2. If you're anything like me and forget about the fact that you don't have a hand mixer because you blew out the 'engine' during a bake sale fundraising event, then you're going to want to grab the next best thing.. your blender. Combine the cream cheese, milk, eggs, vanilla and sugar.

 3. Blend until creamy. Not too shabby if you ask me, and you know what? Only one thing to clean! No fussing with the damn mixing blades which always seem impossible to clean.

 4. Pop open your dough and roll into crescents.

5. Evenly space them in a baking dish.

 6. Sprinkle in your delicious blueberries.

 7. Force your husband and toddler daughter into pouring in the sauce mix. Note: Piper is such a food hound she didn't even put her Timbit down to help.

 8. Have a minor freak out because you're certain there is still too much mixture somehow and that it's going to turn out like garbage.

 9. Place in the oven for 35 minutes.

10. Ding, ding, ding! Fingers crossed you didn't burn the damn things.

 11. Enjoy!

It was a success! They were a little crispy on top but that helped compensate for the 'sogginess' on the bottom, which really,there was none. It was almost exactly like the consistency (and flavor) of cheese danish. Brendon got seconds which really confirmed things for me.

The next time I make these I think I'm going to to a mixed berry something or other.

Yay, we have a new water softener!
