Baked Cream Cheese Appetizer

This is a favorite at our monthly work lunches! One of my interns made it and it was so popular that she brought everyone the recipe. It's a great appetizer when you don't feel like dealing with lots of spills.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 roll of crescent dinner rolls
• 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 t dill weed
• 1/2 t onion flakes
• dash of salt
• dash of pepper
• dash of garlic powder
• 1 egg yolk, beaten

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Lightly grease cookie sheet. Divide crescent roll dough in half (4 triangles each)
3. Make two 12 x 4 rectangles with dough. Pat to seal perforations.
4. Mix cream cheese with dill weed, onion flakes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
5. Spread cream cheese mixture down the center of the dough. Bring dough up to completely enclose the cream cheese. Press edges together to seal.
