Grandma's Secret Tip

Grandma's Secret Tip

Be sure to use the sharpest knife you have to cut the crescent triangles. You want to make a clean cut, being careful not to tear or stretch the dough out of shape.

Serving Suggestion

Serving Suggestion

Serve with mustard and ketchup for dipping. These are a nice hot appetizer to round out the usual baseball game chips and nuts.
