Hi guys, I'm going to try something new and if it fails miserably, so be it. I've gotten pretty into cooking in recent months, and I like to try out a lot of new recipes and make up some of my own. I'm going to try to make these posts mostly visual, because I like food that speaks for itself. There'll be captions to each one, and I'll be happy to provide recipes for anyone interested.
This week we're looking at some Crescent recipes I made. These were all made with tubes of Crescent roll dough. I think they all turned out delicious, but keep in mind this isn't particularly healthy stuff (next week's will be, to balance this out), so these pictures are from, say, early February to now. I think a couple of them might be from last October or November, as well.
Without further ado:

This first one is just standard crescent rolls. Something simple to kick this off. They were delicious, though.

Here we have two kinds of crescents. On the left is a savory italian chicken one, with some mozzarella, breaded chicken, and italian seasonings on the inside. On the outside I put a little more mozzarella, because it crunches up well in the oven and creates a nice juxtaposition to the softness of the crescent. On the right is a hot dog sliced open, with american cheese inserted and a crescent wrapped around it. Hello, heartbreak. Literally.

Now we're getting weird. Here we have half a roll of crescent dough, flattened, topped with olive oil and freshly made roasted garlic, and then given a healthy handful of mozzarella. It was strange, but good.

This was the worst photo, I think, but the best-tasting crescent recipe. First I spread peanut butter on the inside center of the individual crescent cut-out from the roll of crescent dough. Then I put some mini marshmallows and chocolate chips in there. When it was finished cooking, I drizzled copious amounts of chocolate syrup over it. It was delicious.

These are sweet and savory crescents. On the bottom and bottom-right we have the already-described italian chicken crescents. On the sweet side of things, the crescents on the top and top-left are pear and chevre dessert crescents.

Finally, we have a simple chocolate crescent. It's just a crescent roll filled with chocolate chips. It's super-good, though.
Okay, hope you guys enjoyed this. Let me know what you thought and if you'd want to see more posts like this. Thanks!
