Reuben Braids

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 25 min. YIELD: 2 loaves (8 servings each).
I came up with this recipe as a way to make a sandwich feed a large group at once. The braid design always impresses the guests at our parties. —Kellie Mulleavy, Lambertville, Michigan

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces cooked corned beef brisket, chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
  • 3/4 cup sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons Thousand Island salad dressing
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

  • 1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Unroll one tube of crescent dough onto an ungreased baking sheet; seal seams and perforations.
  • 2. Spread half of corned beef filling down center of rectangle. On each long side, cut 1-in.-wide strips to within 1 in. of filling. Starting at one end, fold alternating strips at an angle across filling; seal ends. Repeat with remaining crescent dough and filling. Brush egg white over braids; sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • 3. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks for 5 minutes before cutting into slices. Refrigerate leftovers.
