Favorite Appetizer

Thought I would share with you all one of my favorite appetizers and the best part is it is SUPER easy to make!!!!
What you'll need is the tubes of cresent roll dough, a block of cheese, margarine, chopped garlic, and italian seasoning.
First thing you do is take your cheese and make a bunch of small cubes, the type of cheese doesn't really matter it's really your preference. You'll need one cheese cube per serving so the number of cubes you have will depend on how many you're going to make. Also, the size of your cube is up to you, a bigger cube will make a cheesier appetizer.
When you open the package of dough you're not going to separate all the triangles, normally the triangles are paired up to make a rectangle (4 rectangles per tube). You want to keep them in the rectangles. Since there is a bit of a perforation in the rectangle you'll want to squish the triangles together to make it so there is no seam.
You will then take your rectangle and cut it into 4 equal strips.
Take your cube of cheese and place it at the top of the strip and then roll the strip down so you have a bit of a square shape. After that you'll want to press the sides together so they are closed off.
As you finish each one place on a greased cookie sheet.
Once you have made your desired amount melt butter.
Add minced garlic to butter.
Spread garlic butter over squares.
Sprinkle italian seasoning on top.
Bake at temperature on cresent roll tube, you may have to cook a couple extra minutes than tube says.
They should be a nice golden color when they are done.
I can't tell you how many times I have served this and they have always been a crowd pleaser!!!
