Olive Crescent Twists Recipe

Olive Crescent Twists Recipe

  • 3/4 cup well-drained mixed olives
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 (8 ounce) can Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease cookie sheets or spray with cooking spray. In blender or food processor, place olives, oil and garlic powder; cover and blend until finely chopped.
  2. Unroll dough and separate into 4 rectangles. Press each to form 7×4-inch rectangle; press perforations to seal. Brush dough rectangles with beaten egg. Evenly spread olive mixture on 2 of the rectangles. Top with remaining 2 rectangles, egg-brushed side down; press down.
  3. With thin sharp knife, cut each filled rectangle crosswise into 8 strips. Place strips 1 inch apart on cookie sheets, twisting each 2 or 3 times. Brush tops of strips with beaten egg. Sprinkle strips lightly with cheese.
  4. Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm or cool.
