This special bacon recipe is for all of my bacon lovers out there. This is a super simple recipe using ready-made packaged pastry or crescent dough.
This is my Bacon and Cream Cheese Crescent Wraps. First, make the bacon jam, then the only thing left to do is to simply spread the cream cheese onto the pastry, top it with a large dollop of the bacon jam and then just wrap it up like a pretty little package.
NOTE: The complete bacon jam recipe is also available in a separate post.
