Chicken Pillows

From: B11 Ward Cookbook (Jaime)     Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients:

• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 3 Tablespoons margarine or butter, melted
• 2 cups cooked cubed chicken
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 2 Tablespoons milk
• 1 Tablespoon chopped onion
• 8 ounces canned Pillsbury refrigerated crescent rolls
• 3/4 cup seasoned croutons, crushed

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In medium bowl blend cream cheese and 2 Tbsp butter until smooth. Add chicken, salt, pepper, milk and onion and mix well.
3. Separated dough into 4 rectangles, firmly pressing perforations to seal. Spoon 1/4 of meat mixture into center of each rectangle of dough. Pull 4 corners of dough together and seal edges.
4. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, brush tops with 1 Tablespoon butter and sprinkle with crouton crumbs.  Bake for 20-25 minutes.

My Notes:

• I have had the best success with the Pillsbury crescent rolls...the generic brands don't have enough give and end up tearing/ripping.
