Ingredients
1 can crescent roll dough (8 oz)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

- Place the rolls on the baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Adjust the spiciness by removing more or less of the jalapeno seeds.
Make ahead by preparing the filling and storing it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Assemble and bake when ready.
