Cheese Crescent Rolls

Cheese Crescent Rolls

Ingredients:

  • 1 pkg. crescent rolls (store brand is great)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (store brand is - you guessed it!)
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

Directions:

Unroll crescent rolls and sprinkle with shredded cheese (I prefer extra sharp cheddar for a bold taste). Roll up loosely, brush on a small amount of butter, and sprinkle any stray cheese on top. Bake according to directions on rolls.

While this isn't a hugely original recipe, they are an inexpensive substitute for the same, old rolls. They're extra good with soups, salads, or chili.

Other Ingredients for a Pork Sausage Crescent Roll

Really enjoy this web site and especially all the great members who seem to be able to help one another. Ok, now it is me that needs some help. :>) Recently, I had a baked sausage/cream cheese filled crescent roll. I understand you roll out the crescent rolls on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Then, you add the cooked pork sausage that has cream cheese in it, then cover with another sheet of the crescent rolls and bake until lightly brown. I do not know what
other ingredients are used. It was so very, very good. If you know, please tell me. Thanks!

Easy Chocolate Croissants

Ingredients

  • 1 can crescent rolls (the one with 8)
  • 1 bag of milk chocolate chips
  • 1 bag of peanut butter chips

Directions

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Separate the crescents. Put the chips on the wide end and roll up. I use an equal amount of the chocolate and the peanut chips. Probably a tablespoon of each. Bake for 12-14 minutes.

You could make them with any chips. Next I am going to try raspberry chips. Semi sweet chocolate chips are a little bitter and didn't get any rave reviews around my house.

Cream Cheese Chicken Croissants

This recipe can be used for lunches, snacks, or as appetizers, and it is just delicious!

Ingredients:

  • 1 whole chicken, can also be used with 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 package of cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 3 celery sticks (diced)
  • 1/2 medium onion (diced)
  • 2 cups of sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cans of croissants
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Boil chicken until done.

After chicken is boiled, if using the whole chicken, remove skin, de-bone and shred.

Saute celery, onion, and mushrooms.

In a large bowl mix your shredded chicken, sauteed vegetables, salt and pepper, and cream cheese until well blended.

Take 2 triangles of the croissant and make into one square making it just a little bit thinner by lightly flouring your surface, and using a rolling pin.

Take chicken mixture and put 2 to 2 1/2 Tbsp. (more or less),and put in the middle of the croissant.

Take all the sides of the croissant and make like a ball, by pinching or folding dough to make sure mixture cannot escape while baking.

Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet. Check the croissants can for temperature, and baking time.

Serves 8. If using as an appetizer, use the original triangles and reduce the chicken mixture and it will make 16 delicious appetizers!

Servings: 8 or 16
Time:30 Minutes Preparation Time
about 15 Minutes Cooking Time
