• Sprinkle your chips on top of cream cheese - press them in lightly to aid in rolling.
• Roll the crescent sheet up tightly and wrap in cling wrap.
• Place in freezer for at least 2 hours it won't get really solid as the cream cheese mix won't freeze hard.

• Bake on prepared cookie sheet for 12 -14 minutes until crescent roll appears golden brown.
• Cool on the parchment paper or wire rack.
