Bacon Cream Cheese Pinwheels

I love making appetizers and this recipe has been one of my favorites for a long time! I was looking for something quick and easy to make in the midst of the recent blizzard on the off chance we would be lucky enough to keep our power on and sure enough the gamble paid off.   I was able to make a batch of these and the boys in my house were grateful for them when they came back in from clearing over two feet of snow from the driveway! But you don’t have to wait for a blizzard to make these. Actually you don’t really need a reason to make these except they are easy and very tasty!!! Your family and friends are sure to enjoy them!

INGREDIENTS
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 Tablespoons chopped or grated onion
1 teaspoon 1% milk
1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls
5 strips of bacon,  cooked and crumbled

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix the cream cheese, onion and milk, set aside. On a lightly floured surface unroll the crescent dough into one long rectangle pressing the perforations to seal.  Spread the cream cheese mixture covering the crescent dough and sprinkle with the bacon pieces. Roll up the crescent dough starting with the long side and pinch the seam to seal. Using a serrated knife, cut the roll crosswise into about 24 half inch slices. Place pinwheels on an ungreased baking sheet cut side down. Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Enjoy,
