These savoury squares make a beautiful and popular appetiser, reminiscent of a seafood pizza. A crescent roll crust is baked until crisp, then topped with a creamy blend of imitation crabmeat, sharp cheddar cheese, green onion, and parsley. The whole dish is baked again until the cheese is perfectly melted. It yields 24 servings and is ready in just 30 minutes.
