crescent rolls bread machine
These come out just like the ones in the tube! Make your own and use it just like the refrigerated dough. It makes approximately the equivalent of two tubes of dough. I usually fill the crescents with fillers before baking/last rise. Options include extra spinach artichoke dip, leftover ham with cheese and cream cheese, or pepperoni, cheese, and pizza sauce. Baking times may vary, though. Use your imagination!
