Ingredients
– 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite type)
– ½ cup deli ham or cooked chicken (optional)
– 1 egg (for egg wash)
– Black olives or small pieces of pepperoni (for decoration)
– Sesame seeds (optional, for added texture)
– Cooking spray or parchment paper (for greasing)
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to prepare your Witch Hat Crescent Rolls:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate the triangles along the perforated lines.
3. Add Filling: On the wide end of each triangle, place about one tablespoon of shredded cheese. If you’re using meat, add a piece of ham or chicken on top of the cheese.
4. Shape the Hats: Roll the dough from the wide end towards the point, creating a cone shape. Pinch the ends securely to ensure the filling doesn’t leak.
5. Curl Top of the Hat: Gently bend the pointed tip of the rolled dough downwards to resemble the shape of a witch’s hat.
6. Prepare Egg Wash: In a small bowl, beat the egg with a fork to create an egg wash.
7. Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash for a golden finish.
8. Add Decoration: Place a slice of black olive or a small piece of pepperoni at the tip of each hat to mimic the buckle of a witch’s hat. Optionally, sprinkle sesame seeds for a delightful texture.
9. Bake: Place the rolls in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
10. Cool: Once baked, allow them to cool slightly before serving to ensure the filling isn’t too hot.
