Sweet and Spicy Crescent Appetizers

Sweet and Spicy Crescents Appetizers

1 8 oz package refrigerated crescent rolls
1 8 oz Cream cheese - soften
1 cup pepper jelly

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place foil on cookie sheet. Unroll crescent rolls. Do not separate all triangle shape pieces of dough. Leave two sections of dough together. Spread soften cream cheese onto top of dough, leave about 1/4" around outer edge. Place jelly onto of cream cheese. Bake in oven until dough on edge is brown about 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool and cut into triangle pieces with a pizza cutter. The jelly will be very hot when removed so be careful when serving.

Note: I do not know the origin of this recipe. A friend shared this recipe with me after having it at a holiday party. I have prepared it several times and it is always a hit whenever served. You can change the type of jelly used. Fig preserves is a nice selection as well as simple strawberry jam. By using the different fruit jelly and preserves you can also serve at a bunch or as a dessert.
