Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Pickled jalapeño slices, chopped
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp Ground cumin
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- 1 Egg, beaten
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 8 triangles as per the pre-cut markings.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeño slices, garlic powder, and ground cumin. Mix until well combined.
If desired, fold in the chopped fresh cilantro for an extra burst of fresh flavor.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture at the wider end of each crescent triangle.
Carefully roll each triangle up, starting from the wider end and rolling toward the tip, enclosing the filling as much as possible.
Place the rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the tips of the dough are tucked under each roll to prevent unrolling during baking.
Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg to ensure a golden, shiny finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your delicious Poco Pepper Snacks Crescent Rolls!
