How to Make Apricot Gorgonzola Crescent Appetizers

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Press the dough into a 13x9-inch rectangle, firmly pressing the perforations to seal.
  4. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the apricot preserves and softened butter.
  5. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, or until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir well.
  6. Spread the apricot mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough.
  7. Evenly sprinkle the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese and chopped pecans over the apricot layer.
  8. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  9. Bake for 13-19 minutes, or until the crust is a deep golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let the appetizers cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before cutting.
  11. Cut the baked rectangle into 12 squares and serve warm.
