Chicken Puffs

I made this recipe a few times and I really like it. It is a good snack as well and Aren loves it too. I usually put more chicken mixture in it than a tablespoon because the crescent rolls are pretty big. You can also make your own crescent rolls if you want. I never made my own, but I made some mini corn dogs and I think that the dough from it could easily work for this recipe as well and it might be less expensive this way.

Unroll croissants and divide in half to create 12 rectangles. Place approximately one tablespoon of the chicken mixture on each rectangle. Fold into balls.
