Cream Cheese Bacon Bites

Ingredients:

• 4-5 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 5-6 slices of bacon, cooked
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
• 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 can crescent rolls

Directions:

1. Combine all items except crescent rolls.
2. Unroll crescent rolls onto a cutting board. Pinch seams together, or buy the new sheet crescent dough. I just saw that in the store the other day. Spread cream cheese mixture over top of crescent dough. Be sure to get all the way to the side edges, wouldn't want any of the rolls short changed on the good stuff.
3. Roll jelly roll style from the long side (or if you want just a few really big rolls, roll from the short end.) Cut rolls every 1/2 to 3/4 inch. Place on baking stone or tray.
4. Don't worry if they get a little mushed, crescent dough is forgiving and will still puff up perfectly.
5. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.
6. Let cool on baking sheet for 1 minute before removing and serving.

Notes:

The ingredient list is a guideline. Adjust items to your taste. If I only have 4 strips of bacon, I don't let it stop me. Also, I've used minced onion in these and it gives a bit of texture. I lean more to the 5 ounces of cream cheese but the original recipe only calls for 3 ounces. We just love our cream cheese.
