Ingredients
- 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls (8 count)
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup Powdered sugar, sifted
- ½ cup chocolate chips, semi-sweet or milk chocolate
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large cookie sheet or jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until combined and smooth. Set aside.
- Separate the dough into 16 triangles. Using a pizza cutter, cut each triangle in half lengthwise to make 32 skinny triangles.
- Add a heaping ½ teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture to the largest side of each triangle and add 3-4 chocolate chips.
- Roll up each crescent roll, starting at the large side and rolling up towards the pointy end.
- Place each roll on the prepared sheet to make a tree shape starting with the top and going down. Repeat with each roll.
- Once done, bake for 13-16 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with more powdered sugar and serve warm.

Notes
- Prep ahead of time. Assemble and cover it with plastic wrap. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before baking and serving warm.
- Store. Cool, cover the tray with plastic wrap, and store it in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 1-2 months. Thaw in if needed and reheat in a preheated 300°F oven for about 10 minutes.
- Make smaller trees. Arrange in the shape of 2 smaller Christmas trees as follows- use 1 dough roll for the trunk, then a row of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 rolled ball on top.
