CRAB & CHEESE FILLED CRESCENT ROLLS

A perfect, classy appetizer with crab and cream cheese filling wrapped in a flaky crescent roll. These luscious bites are like those we commonly ordered in a restaurant. The difference is that it is homemade and not expensive. And you can make it whenever you want without spending too much. All you need are a few simple ingredients that you might already have; crescent rolls, cream cheese, mayo, crab meat, green onions, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mixed and rolled in rolls. Easy and quick, you’ll not even sweat!

These crab and cream cheese-filled rolls are my favorites! An Asian-inspired appetizer or snack that is so rich and flaky I want them all for myself! I make this five times this week, would you believe that? My kid first asked me to make some for her and her friends, then I made it again the other day because I was craving. My gosh, now I realized how crazy obsessed I am with these rolls of goodness! If you haven’t tried it yet, you are missing out! This is to die for!
