Crescent Chicken (chicken roll ups)

2 pkg. (8 each) crescent rolls ¾ c. margarine (divided) 1 pkg. 8 oz. cream cheese 2 c. cubed chicken ½ c. chopped nuts (optional) 2/3 c. Pepperidge farm stuffing (don’t crush…. Use it straight from the bag. Mix ¼ c. margarine (1/2 of a cube) with the cream cheese. Fold in chicken. Put approx. ¼ c. of mixture in each roll and seal edges. Flatten out to about ½ inch and dip in ½ c. (1 cube) melted margarine. Lay each side in the stuffing/nut mixture and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 325 for 20-30 minutes. Serve with chicken gravy. This recipe is one of our family favorites! One Sunday when Brad was doing his fast offerings, he went to our good friends Joel & Karela Berrett’s house and they were having this for dinner. She tried to get him to stay for dinner but he told them he couldn’t. He did mention how good it looked though. A couple of weeks later, they invited us over for FHE and told us to come early for dinner. They had made Crescent Chicken and it was so good that we have continued making it. Stephen requested this for his ‘last supper’ at home before he left for the MTC. The whole family went to the church to see him get set-apart as a missionary and then we came home for Crescent Chicken (of course we had to have mashed potatoes, stuffing and gravy to go with it.) and a special Family Home Evening.
