Notes

This is a variation on a beloved family recipe, one my mom made for us all the time growing up in the Midwest! It's a classic upper-midwest recipe, packed with cream cheese, and sour cream, and all stuffed into little pockets of canned croissant dough. Make these delicious little popovers for party appetizers, potlucks, or just an easy weeknight dinner. They make great leftovers, too!
