12 rolls
- Serves:

ingredients
- 2 (680.38 g) can crescent rolls (or one can. Don't actually know can size, they only come in one size)

- 340.19 g package cream cheese (any version of fat, the medium size package)
- 4.92-9.85 ml cayenne pepper
directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Make sure the cream cheese is room temp or it won't spread.
- Unroll the crescent rolls making one large sheet out of the whole can.
- Spread 1/2 of the cream cheese evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle cayenne pepper (if wanted) evenly over the cream cheese. (don't over do it).
- Sprinkle the bacon bits evenly over the cream cheese.
- Roll up the whole thing starting on the long side.
- With a sharp knife cut the roll into 1 inch pieces.
- Unroll the other can and repeat earlier steps or use all of the cream cheese on the one roll. (gooey wonderfulness!).
- Place the cut sides up on a cookie sheet and bake until lightly golden. Sample one and decide if it needs more cayenne pepper on the top.
- Serve and enjoy!

The amounts given in this recipe are fuzzy to say the least ~ In my area crescent rolls come in 8-ounce cans & cream cheese is also in 8-ounce packages, while the small jar of bacon bits is 3-ounces! All that being the case, I used 1 (8-ounce) can of crescent rolls (for 12 rolls), 1 (8-ounce) package of low-fat cream cheese, less than half of the 3-ounce jar of bacon bits, & 1/2 teaspoon of the cayenne pepper! All of that gave me some very, very tasty munchies that were plenty for 4 of us (along with a few other munchies)! I'd really like to have given this recipe the full 5 stars, but the recipe really does need to be re-written so that the amounts reflect what actually is available out there, & also so that the Nutrition Facts are more realistic! Hang in there, 'cause with munchies as tasty as this one, you're sure to get the recognition you deserve! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block tag]

i'm a 28 year old lab tech who works evenings thus creating unusual eating habits. i eat boring healthy things during the week and (try to ) unleash my creative cooking skills on the weekends. i admit that some nights during the one am or even 2am hr i am drawn to make fantastical food creations which only sometimes taste as good as they sound.
i admit, i am a foodie and really do enjoy talking food with people. i hope to one day take real cooking classes and learn how to chop and dice properly.
my passion is food but my skill/knowledge level is that of a youngester. Zaar has really opened my eyes to just how many ways there are to make one simple food and that there is a large world outside my betty crocker cookbook
