These quick crescents from our Test Kitchen have only four ingredients and can be whipped up in minutes. With gouda, pecans and honey, they're super-simple for a weeknight meal, but are special enough for company, too.

2 tablespoons finely chopped pecans
1 tablespoon honey

Preheat oven to 375°. Cut cheese into eight 1/2-in.-wide strips. Separate crescent dough into eight triangles; sprinkle with pecans. Place a cheese strip on the shortest side of each triangle; roll up. Pinch ends to seal.
Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately brush with honey. Serve warm.

My family is pretty picky, so I was surprised that these crescent rolls were a hit with everyone! The savory cheese and pecans are a great way to spice up boring dinner bread. We added bacon pieces for an extra flavor. It was delicious!

Pretty good. I feel like the crescent rolls cheapen what these could be, though. I'm trying to think of the perfect dish to pair them with. They would be great with a slightly sweet wine.
