Spinach Artichoke Crescent Rolls Tips

Although this is a fairly easy recipe to make, we have a couple of tips to help you make it the best it can possibly be.

Press the Spinach – If your spinach seems excessively watery, you can place it in a strainer lined with paper towels and press it to really get that excess water out of it.

Fully Softened Cream Cheese – To get the smooth, creamy texture you need for this filling be sure your cream cheese is fully softened.

Don’t Overfill – Be sure you only add a thin layer of filling to the dough before rolling it up. Any more than that, and you’ll have an oozy mess on your hands.

Spinach Artichoke Crescent Rolls Storage

You can store leftover crescent rolls in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The spinach filling will actually remain good for up to 5 days, but by the third day, your crescent rolls are going to be on the verge of being too soggy.
