Another Crescent Roll Discovery!

What's not to like about crescent rolls? Some of the best desserts I make include them. Last night when my husband made soup for supper, I thought about a bread at the very last minute. I grabbed a can of the crescent rolls that are seamless out of the fridge. This was the first time I bought that kind. On the side of the tube was this recipe, and as luck would have it I had all the ingredients. Well let me tell you, they were fantastic! I will make these for brunch sometime soon.

Crescent Bacon-Cheese Tartlets

Prep Time: 20 Min
Total Time: 45 Min
Makes: 12

INGREDIENTS:
1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls or 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® Crescent Recipe Creations® refrigerated seamless dough sheet (love the seamless dough!)
1/3 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/4 cup chopped cooked bacon
1 tablespoon chopped green onion (1 medium)
1 egg
3 tablespoons whipping cream (or half & half)

DIRECTIONS:
  • Heat oven to 375°F.
  • If using crescent rolls: Unroll dough into 1 large rectangle on work surface. Press into 12x9-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal. If using dough sheet: Unroll dough on work surface. Press into 12x9-inch rectangle.
  • Cut dough into 12 squares. Gently press squares into 12 ungreased mini muffin cups, shaping edges to form rims 1/4 inch high. Spoon cheese evenly into dough-lined cups. Top each with bacon and onion. In small bowl, beat egg and whipping cream with wire whisk or fork until blended. Spoon slightly less than 1 tablespoon mixture into each cup.
  • Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are golden brown and filling is set. Cool 5 minutes. Remove from muffin cups.
