Directions for Bacon Fig & Jalapeno Goat Cheese Pastry Cups

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (or 350 degrees for dark or nonstick pans). Unroll Pillsbury Original Crescent Roll dough and cut it into 16 squares.

Spray the mini cupcake pan with non-stick cooking spray and lay the square dough into a mini muffin pan so the edges come up on the sides, forming a cup.

Bake for 8 to 9 minutes or until golden brown.

Once you remove the pan from the oven, take a small spoon and reshape the dough so you can fill it with your ingredients. Remove cups from pan and cool.

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange 4 thick-cut pieces of bacon on a baking pan lined with foil and then bake until crisp, about 10-12 minutes. Let the bacon cool, and then cut it into small pieces.
