I absolutely love crescent rolls, but my husband and daughter aren't big fans of them, so I have been wanting to try some different recipes with crescent rolls and this one was a BIG hit!
Ingredients:
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls or 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® Crescent Recipe Creations™ refrigerated flaky dough sheet
16 very thin slices (about 4x4 inches) smoked turkey (5 1/2 oz)
16 cubes (2 1/2 oz) Colby-Monterey Jack cheese blend (from 8-oz package)
Powdered sugar
Maple syrup or Dijon mustard, if desired
DIRECTIONS
1. Heat oven to 375°F. Grease cookie sheet with shortening, or spray with cooking spray. In small bowl, beat egg and milk with fork until well blended; set aside.

DIRECTIONS
1. Heat oven to 375°F. Grease cookie sheet with shortening, or spray with cooking spray. In small bowl, beat egg and milk with fork until well blended; set aside.
2. If using crescent rolls: Unroll dough; separate crosswise into 2 (6x8-inch) rectangles, firmly pressing perforations to seal. If using dough sheet: Unroll dough; cut crosswise into 2 (6x8-inch) rectangles. With knife or pizza cutter, cut each rectangle into 8 (3x2-inch) rectangles.
3. Fold each slice of turkey in half; place on dough rectangles. Place 1 cheese cube in center of each; fold turkey around cheese cube. Wrap dough up around turkey and cheese, shaping into a ball; pinch tightly to seal. Brush top and sides of each ball with egg mixture; place on cookie sheet.
4. Bake 10 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm with maple syrup or Dijon mustard for dipping.
I did not want to make them sweet, so instead of the milk and egg mixture, I just brushed each ball with melted butter. We ate them plain, no dipping, though my husband thought a tomato sauce dip would be good. We had these as a part of dinner, but I think they would make a great party appetizer. We really enjoyed them and ate every last one!
