Crescent Chicken Bundles Recipe

ingredients

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

directions

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, 2 tablespoons butter, chives, milk, salt and pepper until smooth. Stir in the chicken. Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into individual rectangles; press perforations together.

Spoon about 1/2 cup chicken mixture onto 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 squared to a covered container. May be frozen for up to 2 months.

Bake remaining squares at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

To use frozen squares: Thaw in the refrigerator and bake as directed above.
