Chicken Crescent Squares

These yummy crescent squares are one of my husband's favorite meals!  They have an awesome flavor and use only a few simple ingredients!

Start by mixing the cream cheese, butter, chicken, onion, salt and pepper.  You can use yellow onion or substitute chives instead.  

Now divide the crescent rolls into four rectangles and place filling in the center of each rectangle.

Pull the corners of each rectangle to the center and twist the dough.  Seal the edges by pressing the dough together.

Add the crushed croutons and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Here's the recipe...
