Equipment

  • 2 12-count muffin tins spray with nonstick
  • oven adjusted to the center rack position
  • Medium Skillet
  • cutting board & knife

Ingredients

  • 16 ounce refridgerated crescent dough (2) 8-ounce tubes
  • cups precooked ham chopped
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 8 ounces swiss cheese cubed
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon dill divided
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

  • In a small bowl mix the mayo and half the dill together to make a sauce. Add the remaining dill to the melted butter, and mix.
    ½ cup mayonnaise, ½ teaspoon dill, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Unroll crescent dough; separate into 16 triangles. Add one triangle to each muffin tin space. Arrange the ham and onion mixture, dill mayo, and a cube or two of cheese on widest end of each triangle. Wrap the crescen dough edges together to create a ball.
