Total Time: 2 hrs 27 mins Preparation Time: 2 hrs 15 mins Cook Time: 12 mins

Ingredients

• 1 (12 ounce) can seamless crescent rolls
• 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3/4 cup peanut butter chips (use a mixture) or 3/4 cup chocolate chips (use a mixture)

Recipe

• 1 beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.
• 2 unroll the crescent roll sheet onto lightly floured surface. . stretch the dough out, i use a rolling pin to do this, then trim the edges to give it a good rectangular shape. a pizza cutter is great for trimming edges of dough. pinch together seams on pre-cut crescents if necessary.
• 3 spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the crescent sheet, leaving a gap at the edge about 1/2 inch.
• 4 sprinkle your chips on top of cream cheese – press them in lightly to aid in rolling.
• 5 roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap.
• 6 place in freezer for at least 2 hours it won’t get really solid as the cream cheese mix won’t freeze hard.
• 7 when chilled preheat oven to 350°.
• 8 line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (prevents sticking and helps in cleanup).
• 9 slice the crescent roll into 1/4" slices. they won’t keep the precise round shape, but that is fine!
• 10 bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown.
• 11 cool on the parchment paper or wire rack.
