Recipe Specific Notes

  • You want to keep your crescent rolls in the fridge until you are ready to use them. They are easier to roll out when they are cold.
  • I find it easier to pinch the crescent rolls together once in the pan for the bottom roll. However, for the top layer, I like to take the two crescent rolls that roll out together and pinch them together before placing them on top of the cream cheese filling.
  • Don’t use too much of your egg whites. Just lightly brush them on the top.
