Mash everything together until smoothly blended because the cream cheese needs to coat the meats and cheese evenly.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Lay Out the Dough:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Unroll the crescent roll dough from the can and gently pull apart each pre-cut triangle. Try to keep each triangle whole so it will roll easily and hold the filling without leaking.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Stuff Each Crescent:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Spoon a full measure of your filling onto the wide end of each dough triangle. The filling should mound up a bit so you get lots in every bite but make sure the edges can seal by pinching lightly.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Roll and Arrange:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Start at the wide end with the filling and gently roll toward the narrow tip curling the dough around itself. Place each piece onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Leave a bit of space between them so they bake evenly.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Top with Parmesan:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Sprinkle a generous even layer of grated Parmesan over the tops of the stuffed crescents. The cheese will brown and crisp up as they bake.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Bake Until Golden:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Slide the tray into a preheated oven set at three seventy five degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for about twelve to fifteen minutes. Watch for the dough turning golden brown and the cheese on top crisping.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Garnish and Serve:<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Once baked remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle on fresh chopped parsley. Serve while warm so the cheese is melty and the bacon is fragrant.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<figure id=\"paragraph-8\" class=\"txt-s pin-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lilicooks.com\/assets\/images\/1763224368744-6q3t2htq.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1400px) 738px, (min-width: 1040px) calc(66.76vw - 63px), (min-width: 860px) calc(100vw - 64px), 717px\" srcset=\"\/cdn-cgi\/image\/fit=contain,width=1024,format=auto\/assets\/images\/1763224368744-6q3t2htq.webp 1024w,\n                              \/cdn-cgi\/image\/fit=contain,width=768,format=auto\/assets\/images\/1763224368744-6q3t2htq.webp 768w,\n                              \/cdn-cgi\/image\/fit=contain,width=480,format=auto\/assets\/images\/1763224368744-6q3t2htq.webp 480w\" alt=\"A tray of food with a pastry and cheese.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" \/><span class=\"txt-s\">Save<\/span><figcaption>A tray of food with a pastry and cheese. | lilicooks.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<aside id=\"paragraph-9\" class=\"note\">\n<h2 class=\"icon-wrapper txt-xl\">You Must Know<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Filled with hearty protein and cheese<\/li>\n<li>Reheats well for snacks and lunches<\/li>\n<li>Kid friendly and very customizable for picky eaters<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<p>My favorite part is always the crispy Parmesan top paired with that creamy chicken center. I remember my nephew sneaking an extra from the sheet pan before anyone else could grab seconds that is how big of a hit they are in my house.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paragraph-11\" class=\"txt-xxl\">Storage Tips<\/h2>\n<p>These crescents keep well for two days in an airtight container in the fridge. If you want to reheat just pop them back in a hot oven for five minutes to restore the outer flakiness. They do not freeze quite as well because the pastry can get a bit soggy once thawed so I suggest making them fresh whenever you can.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paragraph-13\" class=\"txt-xxl\">Ingredient Substitutions<\/h2>\n<p>You can swap turkey for chicken or sausage crumbles for bacon if you like. If you need a cheesier flavor try adding a bit of gouda or smoked cheddar to the filling. For gluten free needs some brands sell gluten free crescent dough now and it works just as well.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"paragraph-15\" class=\"txt-xxl\">Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>These stuffed crescents shine on their own but I love pairing them with a simple green salad for a balanced meal.
