Using crescent roll dough makes this one of the easiest snacks to bake up, and you just can't beat the added cream cheese for a dreamy texture. And, don't forget about back to school - these make a great addition to the kids' lunch box, too!
Ingredients:
- 1 can of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1-2 tablespoon(s) diced jalapeños
- 5 slices crisp bacon, diced/crumbled
- 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix cream cheese, bacon and jalapeños together in a small bowl and set aside.
Roll out crescent roll dough and lightly press seams together to form a sheet.
Layer ingredients evenly on the dough, reserving about 2 tablespoons of cheddar, and roll lengthwise.
Cut into 3/4" slices and place 2" apart on a foil- or parchment-lined cookie sheet. Top with reserved shredded cheddar, if desired.
Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until bread begins to brown.
Allow to cool slightly before plating and serving.
