By sassy47

Ingredients

• 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 16 teaspoons chive and onion cream cheese (3 oz from 8-oz container)
• 1 quart vegetable oil, for frying

Preparation

Step 1

In 4-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil to 325°F. Separate crescent dough into 4 rectangles. Press seams of each rectangle together, then cut in half crosswise. Cut each square in half diagonally.
Place 1 teaspoon cream cheese in center of 1 triangle. Fold dough over cheese; press to seal.
Tuck top point of triangle down to long side, and pinch other 2 points together.
Fry dough in 2 batches, about 3 minutes per batch, turning often, until crescents are nicely browned. Drain on paper towels.
