Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Ground sausage (breakfast, Italian, or your preferred variety)
  • 1 cup Shredded cheese of choice
  • 8 oz. Cream cheese, softened
  • 2 Cans refrigerated crescent rolls
  • Pepper to taste

Preparation

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring it’s ready to bake your crescents to golden perfection.
  2. Prepare the Crescent Rolls: Roll out the refrigerated crescent rolls flat and cut each triangle in half lengthwise, creating smaller pieces to wrap around the sausage mixture.
  3. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until it is completely browned, ensuring it’s cooked through for optimal flavor and texture.
  4. Prepare the Filling: Once the sausage is cooked and cooled slightly, transfer it to a mixing bowl. Add the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese of your choice, and pepper to taste. Mix everything together until well combined, creating a creamy and flavorful filling.
  5. Assemble the Crescents: Spoon a small ball of the sausage mixture onto the widest end of each crescent roll piece. Carefully roll the dough over the sausage filling, forming mini stuffed crescent rolls. Ensure the filling is securely encased within the dough.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Place the assembled crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove the crescents from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. These savory treats are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a tasty appetizer for any occasion.
