Ingredients
  

For the Bites
  • 1 tube Crescent Roll Dough Provides a buttery, flaky base for the bites
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Herbs (Parsley or Chives) Adds color and flavor; substitute with any fresh herb you prefer
  • 1 can Artichoke Hearts Ensure they are well-drained and chopped
  • 1 cup Frozen Spinach Be sure to remove excess moisture to avoid sogginess
  • 1/2 cup Onion Finely diced; shallots make a great alternative
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Opt for vegan cream cheese for a plant-based choice
  • 1/4 cup Sour Cream Plain yogurt can serve as a substitute
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese Nutritional yeast works well for a vegan option

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a mini-muffin tin with nonstick spray and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and press the seams together to form a solid rectangle. Cut out 2-3 inch circles and place them into the muffin cups.
  3. Cut small strips from the remaining dough to create pairs of bunny ears and shape them into curved forms.
  4. Bake the muffin tin for 8-10 minutes and the bunny ears for about 3-5 minutes until golden.
  5. Create a small well in each baked crescent cup, and mix filling ingredients until smooth.
  6. Spoon the spinach-artichoke mixture into each crescent cup and insert bunny ears into the filling.
  7. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately while warm.
