Ingredients:
| INGREDIENTS | QUANTITY |
|---|---|
| Crescent Roll Dough | 2 (8 oz) cans |
| Fresh Strawberries (sliced) | 1 1/2 cups, divided |
| Butter | 3/4 cup |
| Brown Sugar | 1 1/4 cups |
| Vanilla Extract | 2 teaspoons |
| Ground Cinnamon | 1 teaspoon |
| Lemon Juice | 2 teaspoons |
| 7Up or Sprite Soda | 1 cup |
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Separate the crescent dough triangles. Set aside 1/2 cup of sliced strawberries for the sauce.
- Working one at a time, place a spoonful of strawberries at the base of each dough triangle. Wrap the dough around them, pinching the edges to seal. Evenly space the dumplings in the prepared baking dish.
- In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, combine the remaining strawberries and butter. Heat until the butter has melted. Mash the strawberries into a jam-like consistency.
- Stir in brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and lemon juice into the strawberry-butter mixture. Pour this delicious concoction evenly over the dumplings.
- Carefully pour the soda between the dumplings (not over the top).
- Bake for 33-36 minutes or until the dumplings turn golden in color.
- Serve these warm Strawberry Dumplings with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
