  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ¼ cup chopped green onions

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

How to Make It

  1. Preheat Oven
    Set oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or lightly grease it.

  2. Mix the Filling
    Combine shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar, green onions, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir until smooth and well blended.

  3. Prepare Dough
    Unroll the crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles.

  4. Stuff and Roll
    Add about a tablespoon of filling to the wide end of each triangle. Roll toward the point, tucking in the sides if you can. Don’t worry if a little filling peeks out.

  5. Brush and Bake
    Place rolls on the baking sheet and brush tops with melted butter. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and puffed.

  6. Cool & Serve
    Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy as-is or dip in ranch, marinara, or your favorite sauce.

Pro Tips

  • Soften Cream Cheese ahead of time for easier mixing.

  • Don’t Overfill: Stick to about 1 tablespoon per roll.

  • Space Evenly: Give the rolls room to puff while baking.

  • Extra Crispy? Bake on a wire rack set over your baking sheet.
