  5. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the crescent roll dough.
  6. Top with another layer of crescent roll dough, sealing the edges.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container; they can last in the fridge for 3-4 days. For best results, reheat under a broiler for a crisp topping. You can also freeze them for longer storage.
