Crescent Chicken Bundles (Taste of Home)


Crescent Chicken Bundles Recipe 

Thanks Aimee for sharing this recipe. I can't wait to try it. :)


Ingredients

  • 2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted, divided
  • 2 tablespoons minced chives
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 2 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 cup crushed seasoned stuffing

Directions

  • In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, 2 tablespoons butter, chives, milk, salt and pepper until blended. Stir in chicken.
  • Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into eight rectangles; press perforations together. Spoon about 1/2 cup chicken mixture in the center of each rectangle. Bring edges up to the center and pinch to seal. Brush with remaining butter. Sprinkle with crushed croutons, lightly pressing down.
  • Transfer to two ungreased baking sheets. Cover one baking sheet and freeze until firm; transfer squares to a covered freezer container. May be frozen for up to 2 months. Bake remaining squares at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • To use frozen squares: Thaw in the refrigerator and bake as directed. Yield: 8 servings.

Made these last night and they were so good! I halved the recipe. I didn't use the chives and I used heavy cream instead of milk. Will make again!

This is on next menu plan. I am glad you wrote a comment. What did you substitute for chives? I am not a fan of chives.
