Original Recipe Yield 4 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (3.3 ounce) pouch Betty Crocker® Cheddar and sour cream instant mashed potatoes
  • 1 3/4 cups hot water
  • 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped fully cooked ham
  • 2 medium green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 cup Bac-Os® bacon flavor bits or chips
  • 1/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 (8 ounce) can Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper sauce

Directions

  1. In large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes and hot water. Add cream cheese; beat until blended. Stir in the ham, onions, bacon and Cheddar cheese.
  2. Separate crescent dough into 8 triangles. Slightly stretch corners of short side of each triangle to make longer. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Spoon 1/3 cup potato mixture on center of each triangle. Bring corners to center over filling, overlapping ends; press gently to seal.
  3. Mix butter and pepper sauce; brush over tops. Bake at 375 degrees F 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
