Crescent Pizza Pockets

From Pillsbury



Ingredients:
1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1/4 cup pizza sauce
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup sliced pepperoni (24 slices)
1 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:
Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough on cookie sheet and separate into 4 rectangles; press each into 6x4-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal.

Spread 1 tablespoon pizza sauce on half of each rectangle to within 1 inch of edge. Sprinkle each with 3 tablespoons cheese; top with 6 slices pepperoni. Fold dough diagonally over filling; firmly press edges with fork to seal. Sprinkle each triangle with 1/4 teaspoon grated cheese. With fork, prick top of each to allow steam to escape.

Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until deep golden brown. Serve warm.

Comments:
I had some... trouble... with the assembly on these ones. I think it's because I had the cheap store-brand, low-fat crescents. They just refused to stay together, tearing at the seams and everywhere else. I also swapped out some sausage for the pepperoni, but that shouldn't have made a big difference. They tasted great, they just kind of fell apart in the oven. Mental note: don't buy store-brand crescents and try to make something else out of them!
