How to Make Ham And Cheese Croissants Just Like Sara Lee Copycat

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Unroll one can (8 oz) of refrigerated crescent roll dough.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together 4 oz cream cheese, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder until smooth and creamy.
  4. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each crescent roll triangle.
  5. Top with 2-3 slices of honey ham (approximately 2 oz) and 1-2 slices of cheddar cheese (approximately 1 oz) per croissant.
  6. Starting from the wide end, tightly roll the crescent dough towards the pointed end, tucking the point underneath to create a crescent shape, or roll the outer point toward one end for a mini hot pocket shape.
  7. Place the croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
