Another Football Saturday Recipe - Buffalo Chicken Bites

This is similar to a recipe I found on Pinterest.  Next time I'm going to add 1/2 block of cream cheese to it.  They were good, but seemed to be missing something to me. :-)

What you will need:
1.5 cups finely diced cooked chicken breast
3/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup Frank's Red Hot sauce
6 Tbsp. butter melted and cooled
3 cans crescent rolls (8 count)
Mini muffin pans



Preheat oven to 350. Spray coat your mini pans with Pam or whatever you have.) Dice cooked chicken.  In a small bowl, combine the chicken, blue cheese, cheddar cheese, hot sauce,and softened butter (here is where I will add in the softened cream cheese next time.)  Mix together and set aside.

Keep your crescent rolls refrigerated until you are ready to use them.  They are much easier to work with cold.  Unroll the crescent rolls and cut each triangle in half (to make 16 pieces from each package.)  You may have to stretch them to make them cover the tins.  Push the bottom down in the greased muffin cups.  Place a spoonful of chicken mixture in each crescent (I used one of the fruit ballers for this, the large end.)  Pull the dough up around the mixture and twist the corners together.  Sprinkle the tops with shredded cheddar cheese.



Bake at 350 for 15-18 minutes, until tops are golden brown.  (This will depend on what type of pans you use, so keep a close eye on them after 12 minutes.)  Let them cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes.  Then remove and enjoy!

This recipe makes 48 Buffalo Bites.

Roll Tide Roll! :-)
