Perfect as a comforting appetizer or a satisfying main dish, these bundles offer a buttery, creamy, and savory flavor combination that’s sure to please any crowd.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 8 bundles

Ingredients

Filling

  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter, divided
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk or half-and-half
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 4 cups chopped cooked chicken

Dough and Topping

  • 2 (8-ounce) tubes refrigerated crescent rolls
  • 1/2 cup crushed seasoned stuffing (Stovetop or Pepperidge Farm recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a baking sheet to prevent the bundles from sticking during baking.
  2. Prepare the creamy chicken filling: In a large bowl, use a hand-held electric mixer or a wooden spoon to blend together the softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, milk, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes until smooth and creamy. Stir in the chopped cooked chicken and sliced green onions until well combined.
  3. Prepare the crescent dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 rectangles. Gently stretch them a bit to form more of a square shape. Press over the perforations firmly to seal the dough so it doesn't open during baking.
  4. Assemble the bundles: Evenly divide the chicken mixture among the 8 dough pieces, placing the filling in the center of each piece. Bring the edges of each piece up to the center to form a bundle and press the edges securely to seal.
  5. Add finishing touches: Place the bundles on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with the crushed seasoned stuffing mix and grated Parmesan cheese.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bundles are golden brown and flaky on top.

Notes

  • Unbaked bundles can be frozen for up to 2 months. Freeze them individually on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for longer storage.
  • To bake from frozen, thaw the bundles overnight in the refrigerator, then bake as directed, adding extra baking time if they are still partially frozen.
