Here's what my director forwarded to me-
Put 1 crescent roll can on bottom; roll perforations together -
doesn't roll all way out over bottom. Cover with filling
(still can use ss scoop to put filling on dough; spread out
with large spreader or Mix n scraper, etc. Take 8 triangles
from 2nd tube and starting at 1 narrow end seal long edge,
then alternate triangles top to bottom and seal just at long
side of 1st crescent.
You'll have opening between triangles. (I like to have
rolls out for a while, as they stretch better to fit across
the bar pan. [sometimes I only get 6 across, so I roll up
crescnet as they should be and attach to narrow ends.
Looks like handles when it's baked.

When I first started my director told me that instead of doubling a recipe and using the oven for almost an hour you could make extra filling and have an extra can of cresents and make it on the bar pan. SO you just kind of have an oval instead of a circle.
Lay out your cresent triangles in a compass rose and then fill in with remaining triangles. I've done it plenty of times and it works great.
