When you want a real crowd-pleaser, turn to these cheesy little bites made with refrigerated crescent dough. The flaky swirls have great onion flavor and a creamy filling.

Ingredients

1 tube (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent rolls
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon milk
2/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

Separate crescent dough into four 8-in. x 6-in. rectangles; gently press perforations to seal. In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, bacon, onion and milk. Spread evenly over rectangles.
Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal. Cut each roll into eight slices; place cut side down on ungreased baking sheets.

I added 1 cup of imitation crab to this recipe and it went over big time for an appetizer. Everyone loved it.
