I made these a few days ago....since I did not know how 'thin' the dough had to be rolled, I made them slightly thicker than I should have. It therefore took longer to cook. The next time I make them, I'll be wiser and make them really thin! Despite being thick rolls, they tasted good and went well with cheese. Haven't tried it with yogurt, though.

This tastes very much like a pie crust pastry - NOT at all like crescent rolls! I rolled the crust out all at once, thinly, and filled it with a cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, green onion & red pepper mix. It took nearly 30 minutes to get done - lightly browned. Maybe this recipe is an old-fashioned way of making crescent rolls, but it sure wasn't what I was expecting.

I'm sorry to say that I've tried this recipe twice and they didn't turn out either time for me. The problem was probably with me and not the recipe. I couldn't seem to get the right amount of milk-it was either too little or too much. I don't consider myself an inexperienced cook, but these must be over my head.=(
