Baked Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomato Appetizer image

Gotta love refrigerated crescent dinner rolls. They make elegant appetizers when stuffed with pesto and sun-dried tomatoes. And they're a cinch to prepare.

Time 30m

Yield 16 servings, 2 Tbsp. each

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 can (8 oz.) refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese
2 tsp. CLASSICO Traditional Basil Pesto Sauce and Spread
2 tsp. finely chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Unroll crescent dough; separate into four rectangles. Place two of the rectangles, side-by-side, on nonstick baking sheet. Firmly press seams and perforations together to seal. Reserve remaining dough for decorative garnish.
  • Cut block of cream cheese horizontally in half. Spread pesto onto bottom half of cream cheese; cover with tomatoes. Top with remaining cream cheese to form sandwich. Place in center of dough. Bring up ends of dough around all sides of cream cheese to enclose completely; pinch ends of dough together to seal. Place, seam-side down, on baking sheet. Cut remaining crescent dough into small fun shapes, such as leaves or fruit. Arrange on top of dough.
  • Bake 20 min. Serve warm with assorted crackers and fresh vegetables.
