Ingredients
Rolls:1 package refrigerated Lowfat Crescent Rolls1 Tbsp. light whipped butter1 Tbsp. brown sugar (not packed)1/4 tsp. cinnamon2 cups fresh or frozen (drained) blueberries1 oz. pecan pieces (optional)Icing (optional):1/4 cup Lowfat Cool Whip3 Tbsp. low-fat cream cheese1 Tbsp granulated sugar
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 deg.

Rolls:
If using frozen berries, thaw and drain. In a small bowl, combine butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly and set aside.

Unroll dough sheet and lay it flat on a dry surface, with the short sides on the right and left. Push dough a little to get rid of perforations. Spread evenly with butter mixture. Scatter berries and pecans (if using) over dough.

Roll dough into a log (horizontally) as tight as possible. With the seam side underneath, cut into 8 pinwheels with a serrated knife.

Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and evenly place pinwheels flat on the sheet withthe swirl sides facing up. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly.

Frosting:
To make the frosting, combine Cool Whip, cream cheese, and 1 Tbsp. of granulated sugar (can use powdered sugar also, I just didn't have any at the time) in a small bowl. Mix until smooth and well blended. Set in refrigerated until ready to use.
When rolls are cool, evenly distribute frosting among the tops of the pinwheels.
