Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spatula
  • 2 packages 8 oz each refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2 cups cooked turkey shredded or chopped
  • 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or Swiss cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or cream cheese
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare the Crescent Dough:
  • Unroll the crescent dough and arrange the triangles in a circular pattern on the baking sheet, overlapping slightly to form a ring. The pointed ends should face outward, creating a sunburst effect.
  • Make the Filling:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the turkey, cranberry sauce, cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Assemble the Ring:
  • Spoon the filling onto the wide ends of the crescent dough, forming a circular mound. Gently fold the pointed ends of the dough over the filling, tucking them under the base to seal.
  • Bake:
  • Place the crescent ring in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Cool and Serve:
  • Let the ring cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Chill the crescent dough slightly before unrolling to prevent tearing.
Brush the top of the crescent ring with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.
