Easy and amazing!
It was easy to make.
I used garlic and basil instead of dill. I also added jalapenos and bacon. My guests loved it.
This has become a Christmas morning favorite in our house! However I mix the cream cheese and dill (I think fresh makes a big difference) and put it in the fridge overnight. Then I make smaller versions using the individual crescents. So yummy and delicious – can hardly wait for them to cool down when they come out of the oven!
I made these just for a snack by myself at home, and they were great! I used the ingredients on the list and added garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and a couple dashes of black pepper to mine. I mixed it all into the soft cream cheese first. Then, rather than lay a big block of cream cheese in the center, I laid my crescent dough out and pinched the seams, then spread the cream cheese mixture across it, rolled it up and cut it across to make 8 mini rolls. Baked at 375 (b/c that is what the package said) for 15 minutes and viola! It was DELICIOUS.
Good basic recipe that can be customized to your specific tastes. I’ve made these with chopped green olives and pimentos with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar, onion powder, pepper and lawrys. I’ve tried Italian seasoning with fresh parmesan and deleted the dill. Finely chopped Roma tomatoes and a little green onion is really good too. The possibilities are endless!
This was pretty good. I wanted it to have just a little more flavor. I made 4 small loaves. My little ones enjoyed it.
LOVE, LOVE this recipe!!! Very good with wheat thins!!
Really liked the combination of the cream cheese and dill. I sliced the crm ch so it wasn’t overwhelming and also added some garlic powder and fresh ground black pepper.
I’ve made this recipe twice. The first time, i didn’t really read the directions just did what i wanted to with the ingredients. I used a whole lot of fresh dill (without measuring probably had extra) and mixed in a clove of garlic (mashed, diced). Wrapped them individually like crescents, concentrating the cream cheese mixture in the center of the crescent. They went quickly, and they wanted more. There were only 8 crescents per package so prepare accordingly. Cheers!
I made the individually wrapped version but thought they were kind of bland. Maybe I need to seriously up the dill or use a different spice altogether. If I make them again, I will definitely use regular cream cheese. I used fat-free and it wasn’t as gooey, melty inside as I would have liked.
The family ate most of it, but there was no raving about how good it was. It’s not one of my favorite appetizers.
My only issue w/ this recipe is how much cresent is on the ends – not easy to get to the cream cheese for a “dip”. Tastes great though – kind of hard to screw it up it so easy!
I had this at a party and it was to die for! It is exquisitely easy to make and is delicious! It was served with crackers or cut up and eaten in bits. Yummy!
These are delicious, but to make it a meal…I add in chicken tenders that I’ve boiled in chicken broth and torn apart. Also, with the dill, I add some garlic salt, celery see, and black pepper. Easy, yummy, portable dinner!
I didn’t prepare them as the recipe states…I mixed the cream cheese and dill together then spread on 2 packages of cresent rolls that had been flattened and seems pinched together. Then roll it up, starting with the longest edge (into kind of a long log shape) then slice into bite size strips and bake
Everyone loves this!
Not Good
Very inexpensive and easy appetizer. Served it at a baby shower and everyone raved about the taste. I followed several others advice and prepared as individual rolls. Will definitely make them again and again when I need a quick and easy appetizer.
This is a very good recipe, but I also add the dry mix Hidden Valley Ranch mix and garlic powder to taste, mixing it into the room temp cream cheese…you add what you like of the garlic and Hidden Valley, since everyone likes are different until you like the flavor ; )
I like this basic recipe, but to add a little “kick” I either sprinkle a little cayenne pepper on top of the cream cheese, or brush the inside of the dough with hot sauce before baking! Yum!! You could also try mixing some red pepper flakes in with the dill.
