Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 rolls) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 0.25 cup Apricot preserves
- 0.33 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts or pecans
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles as marked on the dough.
Place each triangle on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of apricot preserves onto the wider end of each crescent triangle.
Sprinkle 1-2 teaspoons of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese over the apricot preserves.
Add a small pinch of chopped walnuts or pecans onto the cheese to add crunch.
Starting at the wide end of the triangle, carefully roll the dough toward the pointed end, forming a crescent shape. Make sure the filling is tucked inside.
Arrange the rolled crescents on the baking sheet, leaving enough space for them to expand while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Optional: Garnish with a small pinch of finely chopped fresh rosemary for a fresh aromatic touch.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a delightful appetizer or snack.
