Chicken Pillows

These turned out to be a BIG hit in my family...unfortunately, they aren't a 'good for you' recipe and my dad loved them! He at 3 at dinner and then another 2 later that evening! 

1 (8 oz) can crescent rolls
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
3 cups cooked and shredded chicken 
1/2 tsp salt (opt.)
1/2 tsp pepper (opt.)
1 egg, mixed with 2 TBS water (I didn't measure)
1 sleeve saltine crackers, crushed  (or Italian bread crumbs)

1 can cream of chicken soup 
1/4 cup milk 
1/2 cup sour cream
2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 400. Stir together until smooth the cream cheese and butter. Add the shredded chicken and salt and pepper. Lay out the 8 crescent rolls on a cookie sheet, stretch them out as much as possible without tearing them. Divided the filling amongst the crescent roll triangles, then fold the crescent around the mixture, so that none of its filling if showing. This is the "pillow". 
Dip the "pillows" into the egg mixture then into the cracker crumbs, making sure to coat the "pillows". Bake the "pillows" for 15-20 minutes, until they are golden (you want the crescent roll to be cooked, there's nothing good about biting into bread dough).
For the sauce topping: Combine the cream of chicken, milk, sour cream, and cheese in a sauce pan, lightly simmer, stirring so it doesn't burn, until desired consistency.
Serve over top the "pillows".
