The turkey day snack!

Right now I'm hard at work, prepping my special herb butter for the hopefully tasty morsels known as chicken puffs. I've been fantasizing about these for a couple weeks now. Ok, so Thanksgiving is merely an excuse for me to try something new, but hey, what an awesome excuse it is. With out further delay, here is the recipe. (link)

Chicken Puffs 

Ingredients

   2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed
   3 tablespoons chopped onion
   3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
   3/4 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
   6 tablespoons herbed or regular butter
   3 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough

Directions

   1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, slowly cook and stir skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, onion and garlic. Cook until onions are tender and chicken is lightly browned.
   2. In a medium bowl, blend chicken mixture, cream cheese and butter until creamy.
   3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
   4. Unroll croissants and divide in half to create 12 rectangles. Place approximately one tablespoon of the chicken mixture on each rectangle. Fold into balls.
   5. Arrange balls on a large baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
