Method
 

Chicken Crescents

  1. Preheat Oven:

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Prepare Sauce:

    Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, combine cream of chicken soup with milk (using the soup can as measure) instead of water; set aside.

  3. Mix Chicken Filling:

    In a separate bowl, mix together softened cream cheese, chopped cooked chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, and black pepper to taste.

  4. Fill Crescent Rolls:

    Separate crescent rolls into 8 triangles. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the wide end of each triangle. Roll up starting at the wide end, tucking in the sides to seal the filling inside.

  5. Arrange in Dish:

    Place filled crescents in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cream of Chicken Sauce

  1. Bake and Add Sauce:

    Bake for 25 minutes. Then pour 1/4 to 1/3 of the prepared sauce between the crescents and bake for another 10 minutes.

  2. Heat Remaining Sauce:

    Heat the remaining sauce and serve on the side to pour over the crescents and mashed potatoes or rice.

  3. Serve and Enjoy:

    Enjoy!
