This is decadently delicious! I will say though, I wasn't the best direction follower - I softened the cream cheese and mixed the green onion and dill (because I didn't see where to add it) then folded in the crabmeat into it and rolled it in the crescent rolls. I also threw in some fresh parsley! Thanks! Made for ZWT 9
