Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need

Oven
Baking sheet
Non-stick cooking spray
Rolling pin
Pizza cutter or knife
Wire rack

Ingredients

2 cans of crescent rolls (biscuits can also be used)
Cheese (any type you prefer)
12oz or 16oz package of bacon, cooked
Flour for dusting (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray and lightly flour your work surface.
Unroll one can of crescent rolls (or use half a can of biscuits) on your work surface. Press the seams together and stretch into a rectangle.
Add a layer of cheese, followed by a layer of bacon.
Unroll the remaining can of crescent rolls on top, pressing all seams together both on top and around the edges.
Use a pizza cutter or knife to slice into squares, then place them on the baking sheet so they are touching.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 3-5 minutes. Enjoy!

Tips for Success

For best results, ensure the seams of the crescent rolls are well-pressed to prevent the filling from spilling out. If you’re using bacon bits, they should be real bacon for maximum flavor.

Additional Tips and Variations

For an added twist, mix a small container of cream cheese with the bacon before stuffing. This adds a rich, creamy texture. If you’re short on time, using pre-cooked bacon bits can speed up the process without compromising taste.

Nutritional Highlights (Per Serving)

The nutritional content will vary based on the type of cheese used, but generally, these biscuits provide a good source of protein from the bacon and cheese, along with carbohydrates from the crescent rolls.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use biscuits instead of crescent rolls? Yes, biscuits work just as well and give a slightly different texture.

What type of cheese is best? Cheddar and mozzarella are popular choices, but feel free to use your favorite.

Can these be made ahead of time? They are best enjoyed fresh, but you can prepare them up to the baking step and refrigerate for a few hours before baking.
