Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 1 can Crescent Roll Dough refrigerated
For the Filling
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese can substitute with vegan cream cheese
  • 1 cup Frozen Spinach squeeze out excess moisture
  • 1 cup Artichoke Hearts canned, drained and chopped
  • 1 small Onion or shallots for a milder flavor
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream can use Greek yogurt as substitute
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese or nutritional yeast for a vegan option
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley or Chives) or swap for cilantro or dill
  • 2 cloves Garlic fresh minced or garlic powder
For the Bunny Ears
  • 1 each Scrap Dough from cutting circles

Equipment

  • mini muffin tin
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • Round Cutter

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a mini-muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and form flat rectangles by pressing the seams together. Cut out circles from the dough using a round cutter.
  3. Place the dough circles into the muffin tin and press them down. Poke holes in the bottoms to allow steam to escape. Cut out bunny ears from the remaining dough.
  4. Bake the bunny ears on the parchment-lined baking sheet for about 3-5 minutes until golden. Bake the filled cups in the muffin tin for about 8-10 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  5. Allow the cups to cool slightly, create wells in the center, then fill them with the creamy spinach-artichoke filling.
  6. Press the baked bunny ears into the filling and garnish with fresh herbs for a delightful presentation.

Notes

Chill your dough for cleaner cuts and better shape retention during baking. Squeeze out moisture from the spinach to avoid soggy bites. Make the filling in advance for quicker preparation.
