Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 fresh jalapenos, finely diced
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped (optional)
- 1 egg, whisked with a splash of water (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapenos, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, and green onions (if using). Mix until well combined.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate into individual triangles. Place them flat on the prepared baking sheet.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling onto the widest part of each triangle. Roll them up starting from the wide end, tucking the sides in as you go.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with egg wash to help them bake to a golden perfection.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before serving.
Notes
For less spice, remove seeds and membranes from jalapenos. Use cold crescent dough for easier handling. Prep the filling a day ahead for convenience.
