HOT POCKETS RECIPE {COPYCAT}

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the salt, baking powder, and flour. Cut the butter in.
• Add the milk and stir with a spoon. Knead for 5 minutes adding in more flour (just until the dough doesn't stick to the sides of the bowl.) Do not exceed more than a cup, add in flour by the tablespoon until it reaches the non-sticking point.)
• Cover and refrigerate the dough for 1 hour.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a 20 by 12-inch rectangle.
• Cut dough out into 8 squares with each measuring about 5 by 6-inches. Fill each square with the desired filling and pinch down the edges to seal the dough.
• Place pockets onto parchment paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Brush the hot pockets with milk and garnish with dry herbs (oregano, garlic powder, and parsley.) Bake in a preheated 400F oven for 15 minutes.

PIZZA POCKETS OR HOT POCKETS

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar. Let it set for a few minutes until foamy (if you're using fast-rise yeast, you can just add the yeast with the flour and go on). Then stir in oil, salt, and flour. Knead 5 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes.
• Divide dough into 6 pieces. Roll and pat each piece into a circle (about 6-inches across or so). Top half of each circle with filling of choice, keeping back from edges so it will seal well. Fold the other 1/2 of circle over the filling and pinch sides together or seal with a fork. Poke a couple steam vents and bake for 20 minutes at 375°F.
• For pizza pockets, fill this with a little pizza sauce, then mushrooms, pepperoni, cheese, etc. Also, try with cream soup, chopped cooked chicken and steamed broccoli and some shredded cheese. Use your leftovers and imagination to create something special!

Steps:

• Place 2 crescent rolls on a baking sheet. Pinch triangular seams together to make a rectangle; flatten dough to make a larger base. Repeat with the remaining pairs of rolls in the can.
• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute broccoli and mushrooms until tender, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add ham to the pan; cook until liquid evaporates, 3 to 5 minutes. Spoon 1/4 of the ham onto each dough base. Divide broccoli-mushroom mixture among the dough; sprinkle 3/4 of the cheese over the pockets.
• Open the second can of rolls. Stretch 2 rolls out to form a rectangle; place over each pocket, covering the filling. Pinch sides together to seal the pockets. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes.

CHEESY CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI POCKETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside. Place broccoli florets into a steamer or colander set over a pan of boiling water. Cover and steam for 5 mins, or until cooked through and vibrant green; set aside. In a large bowl, combine chicken, cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic powder; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove rolls from the can, separating them into 8 rectangles, 2 triangles each. Press each rectangle to form a 6×4-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal. Top half of each rectangle with chicken mixture and broccoli. Fold dough from the top over the filling, pressing the edges to seal. Place onto the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 12-13 minutes.* Serve immediately.
