Ingredients
  • 2 cups Cooked cubed chicken
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • 4 oz Cream cheese, softened 1
  • 8 oz can crescent rolls
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. 2
    In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and milk, whisking until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. 3
    Add the cubed cooked chicken to the cream cheese mixture and stir gently until the chicken is evenly coated.
  4. 4
    Open the can of crescent rolls and separate the dough into 4 large rectangles, pinching the perforated seams to seal any holes.
  5. 5
    Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the 4 dough rectangles, placing a generous scoop in the center of each.
  6. 6
    Bring the four corners of the dough up over the filling, gathering them at the top and pinching tightly to seal the pocket completely.
  7. 7
    Place the sealed rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
  8. 8
    Allow the rolls to cool for 5 minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly.
