This is one of my forgotten recipes that I just recalled when looking for appetizer recipes. These make great bite-size snacks or appetizers. Recipe can easily be cut in half. Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) tubes refrigerated reduced-fat crescent rolls |
8 ounces light cream cheese, softened to room temp |
2 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/3-1/2 cup finely chopped scallion |
1/2 cup finely diced ham |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
Directions:
1. On a nonstick surface or wax paper, unroll each tube of crescent dough. Seperate each 8-oz tube into 2 large rectangles (you'll have 4 total).
2. Seal the perforations very well and spread out dough just a bit.
3. In a bowl, beat together the cream cheese sour cream and mustard. Stir in the scallions, ham, cheese and garlic powder; mix well.
4. Spread each rectangle with one-fourth of the cream cheese mixture. Spread it thin and leave 1/2 on the sides.
5. Roll up the rectangles jelly-roll style.
6. Wrap each roll in wax paper and place in the freezer for 20-25 minutes.
7. Preheat oven to 375°F.
8. Unwrap rolls and cut into about 1/2 slices.
9. Place slices on a nonstick or lightly greased cookie sheet and bake for about 12 minutes or until lightly golden.
10. After baking, allow to cool for 3 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.
11. Serve warm or cold.
