Ingredients

• 2 cans (8 oz each) Crescent roll dough
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 10 oz Frozen chopped spinach
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 teaspoons Dried onion flakes
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 1 small amount Butter or cooking spray (to grease pan)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the greased baking dish to form a crust. Seal any perforations in the dough with your fingers. Set aside the second can of dough for the top layer.

Step 3

Bake the bottom crust for 6-8 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly while preparing the filling.

Step 4

Thaw the frozen chopped spinach in the microwave or at room temperature. Once thawed, squeeze out excess moisture using a clean dish towel or paper towels.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, dried onion flakes, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Stir the thawed, drained spinach into the cheese mixture until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the pre-baked crescent dough crust in the baking dish.

Step 8

Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and carefully place it over the spinach mixture. Stretch it gently to cover the filling completely. Seal any perforations.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling slightly at the edges.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
