Steps:

• Lightly pound the chicken breasts until they are about a 1/2 inch thickness.

• Turn heat to broil and cook another 5 minutes to crisp the bacon.

Steps:

• Combine the above ingredients (minus the crescent rolls) and mix well.
• Open one 8 count package crescent rolls. DO NOT divide into triangles. Keep every 2 triangles together, forming 4 rectangles.
• Pinch the seams closed and pat each one out into a larger square. Note from Brittni -- "I forgot to pat them out into larger squares, and so I had to use an extra can of crescent rolls to use up most of the filling, so it might be good to have and extra can handy." (I changed the ingredient list to 2 cans of crescent rolls just in case!).
• Put a spoonful of chicken/cream cheese mixture into the center of each square. Fold the corners up into the center, layering like flower petals so the roll is sealed. (Don't stress too much on the technique, fold them up press seams together to make a bundle.).
• Repeat with all 8 rectangles. You're going to worry that you're doing this wrong, but you're not, just do it, I promise they'll taste delicious.
• Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
