Shrimp - Cheese Roll

Shrimp-Cheese Roll - serves 16

1 1/2 cups Muenster cheese
1 cup shrimp
1/4 cup green onion, sliced
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
2 eggs
1 package refrigerated crescent roll
2 tbsp butter, melted
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp water

In a large bowl, stir together muenster cheese, cooked shrimp, sliced green onion, salt, pepper and 2 eggs; set aside.
Unroll refrigerated crescent roll dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pinch together the perforations on both sides. Fold in half crosswise and with a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out to a 14"x 9" rectangle. Brush with melted butter.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spread the cheese/shrimp mixture over surface leaving a 2" bare strip along the long edge of the dough, then roll up as a jelly roll. Firmly pinch the seam and ends together; moisten slightly with water, and smooth with a knife to seal well. Place on an ungreased baking sheet.
In a small bowl beat 1 egg yolk with water. Brush on the roll.
Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool.
