Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped
  • a pinch flakey sea salt optional
  • marinara sauce for serving, optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Unroll all of the crescent rolls and break them along the perforated lines. Cut each triangle in half - you should have a total of 32 pieces.

  • Place about 1 teaspoon* of cream cheese on the wider end of a triangle and roll it up. Place on the baking sheet in the shape of the tree - see photos for reference. Repeat with remaining ingredients.**

Notes

*Some of the triangles will be bigger than others. Just use enough cream cheese to fit the triangle. Be sure not to overfill or you might run out of cream cheese.
**No need to squeeze them together too much. As long as they are touching they will bake together in the oven.
***TO TRANSFER TO PLATTER: If you want to transfer this to a serving platter, pick up the whole thing (including the parchment paper) and place it on the serving platter. Use a spatula to carefully slide the tree off of the parchment and onto the platter.
