EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The recipe calls for sliced pepperoni but chopped works just as well.

Shape these crescents up to 2 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate them. Bake them just before they'll be served.

For an appealing lunch, serve a couple of these tasty rolls with a big green salad.

Fantastic. I used crisp bacon instead, added small amount of chopped bell pepper, mushrooms, and tomatoes. I used a half hour pre-heated pizza stone, but placed the crescents on a sheet of non-stick aluminum foil, placing it then on the stone. Crescents are light, like they are supposed to be. Easy and fast; awesome. Using the french bread variant would be interesting.

These are the BEST!!! They are so easy to make and the crescent is so light that it does not weigh down the cheese and pepperoni. A great snack.

Wow! Extremly tasty, ecspecially after I brushed on butter and sprinkled on Garlic Salt soon as I took it out of the oven. So very very tasty. Thanks Pillsbury for this Recipe!
