- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 6 tablespoons butter, softened
- 3 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough

Place about 1 tablespoon of chicken filling onto the center of each rectangle and fold the corners together to make balls. Arrange balls on a large baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until filling is heated through and puffs are golden brown, about 12 minutes.
