1 loaf

ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons pesto sauce
- 2 teaspoons sun-dried tomatoes
directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Unroll crescent roll dough (I use Pillsbury); separate into 4 rectangles.
- Place 2 of the rectangles side by side, on a nonstick baking dish. Firmly press seams and perforations together to seal. Reserve remaining dough for decorative garnish.
- Cut the block of cream cheese horizontally. Place one half on the pastry. Spread with 2 tsp basil pesto and 2 tsp of finely chopped and drained oil packed sun dried tomatoes. Place the other half of the cream cheese on top to form a sandwich.
- Bring up sides of dough to encase the cream cheese completely and decorate with remainder of dough.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Hi it's fun to be part of RecipeZaar! I work full time and in my spare time I like to experiment in the kitchen. I also enjoy small hikes, biking and the outdoors. I look forward to travelling to new destinations in the future.
It is always nice to try different tastes from different restaurants. I enjoy trying to recreate some of the memorable meals I have shared with my husband. He is more than willing to attempt any of my kitchen creations. I am an avid cookbook collector and my husband teases that I could open my own library! I guess I am always seeking that "perfect recipe". I have found many great recipes here on Zaar and I think some of the greatest cooks are on this site!! I hope you enjoy the recipes that I share with you. Have fun! Decadent1
