    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.

    2. In a medium bowl, beat together hatch chilies, chives, cream cheese, and hatch pepper cheese until light and fluffy.

    3. Open crescent roll tube, but do not unroll dough. Slice each roll of dough into 6 pieces, creating 12 even pieces total. Place sliced dough onto prepared baking sheets. Using your hand, create an indent in each piece of dough.
