  • Crescent roll dough– The kind that comes in a refrigerated tube.
  • Cream cheese– Softened and cut into 8 equal cubes.
  • White chocolate chips– To stuff inside and melt down for a candy drizzle
  • Gingersnap cookies– Crushed
  • Sprinkles– Red, green, and/or white sprinkles or other holiday sprinkles for an extra festive touch

How to Make

These gingbread crescents are so easy!

To do it, unroll the crescent dough onto a lightly greased baking sheet and tear at the perforation so you have the dough ready to make crescent rolls.

Fill each crescent roll with 1 cube of the cream cheese, 1 tbsp of the white chocolate chips, and a pinch of the crushed gingersnaps.

Then, start at the fat end and gently roll up the triangle to form crescent shape.

Repeat this for the remaining crescents.

Bake the prepared rolls at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

In a double boiler, or in the microwave, melt the rest of the white chocolate chips.

Once the chocolate is melted, drizzle it over the crescent rolls.

Then sprinkle the rest of the crushed ginger snaps over top.

Finish off with a handful of candy sprinkles.

Tips and Tricks

  • Don’t want to use white chocolate to drizzle on top? You could also drizzle some vanilla frosting on top.
  • Make sure not to overcook the chocolate when you are melting it. If you are microwaving it to melt it, melt it for 30 seconds first. Then stir. After that, microwave in 15 second increments, stirring after each one, until the chips are melted.
  • You could use this same concept with all kinds of festive flavors. For example, you could substitute the crushed gingerbread with peppermint pieces instead.

  1. Do we belong with the same batch? I also took Masters in Procrastination! 😀 And I am in doctorate now! Haha! These crescent rolls are so lovely and they look delicious, too. I hope you enjoy weekend.

  2. What a pity Christmas is all over – I could start all over again – with these little rolls, who cares if it says ‘January’ in the calendar …
    Happy Fiesta Friday!
