Chicken and Broccoli Cups

Description:
I made these tonight and they were fabulous! I took one bite and realized there was NO WAY I could stop myself from eating too much. They were so so good. You can use reduced fat cream cheese and reduced fat crescent rolls to make it a little healthier. You could also substitute the broccoli for any vegetable you or your family like. We eat it as a main dish, but you could easily serve them as appetizers.

Ingredients:
1 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened (or neufatchel cheese)
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted, divided
1 tablespoons minced chives
1 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic
2 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 1/2 cups cooked broccoli
1 (8 ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, chives, milk, garlic, salt and pepper until smooth. Stir in the chicken and broccoli.

Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into eight triangles; press triangles into greased muffin pan to make a cup shape. Spoon
about 1-2 Tablespoon chicken mixture into each cup.

Bake squares at 350 degrees F as directed on crescent roll package or until golden brown.

Number Of Servings:4

Preparation Time:20 minutes
