  2. Drain any excess grease and let it cool slightly.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

Step 3: Prepare the Crescents

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles.

Step 4: Fill and Roll

  2. Roll the dough from the wide end to the tip, enclosing the filling. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 5: Bake
