Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray the mini-muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough, press seams together to form a single sheet, and cut circles about 2-3 inches in diameter.
  3. Press each dough circle into the greased mini-muffin cups, poking a few holes in the bottom.
  4. Cut out bunny ear shapes from leftover dough scraps and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Bake the bunny ears for 3-5 minutes and the cups for 8-10 minutes until golden and flaky.
  6. Create wells in the center of each crescent cup after baking and let them cool slightly.
  7. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, artichoke hearts, spinach, onion, Parmesan, garlic, and salt until smooth.
  8. Spoon the creamy filling into each cup and gently press down a bunny ear into the filling.
  9. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve warm.
