Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded chicken, ranch seasoning, and shredded cheese until well mixed.

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.

Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture at the wide end of each triangle.

Roll the dough around the filling, starting from the wide end and tucking the points in as you go.

Place the rolled dumplings on a greased baking sheet.

Melt butter in a small bowl and mix in garlic powder and black pepper.

Brush the melted butter mixture over the tops of the dumplings.

Sprinkle bacon bits on top of each dumpling for added flavor.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
