Jalapeño Crescent Roll Snacks
"I love any type of recipe that involves crescent rolls! This is a great combination of spice from the jalapeños, cooled down by the mozzarella & cream cheese. You could either make these as little squares for a snack or cut them before cooking into the shape of pinwheels for a fun appetizer!"

Oh man this is good! I generally like things a little more on the mild side, so I didn't quite use the recommended amount of jalapenos, but I think next time I'll cut it down more, and only use half the amount. They are so good, though, that I don't mind a little extra kick. Thank you for sharing this recipe! -
So good! I love spicy dishes, so this was great and who doesn't like cream cheese!? I'll definitely make these again. Thanks :0) -
Very good! I made with 2% milk and normal cream cheese. -
I made these and they were Great!! What's even better is if you don't have Crescent rolls, just make the "Filling" and use it as a dip or spread with Ritz Crackers! Very Universal!
