Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground sausage (breakfast, Italian, or your favorite variety)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls
- Black pepper, to taste
- Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. Slice each triangle lengthwise to make smaller strips.
Brown the sausage in a skillet until fully cooked. Allow it to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sausage, softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture on the wide end of each crescent strip.
Roll up each crescent, starting from the wide end, to encase the filling inside.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.These creamy, cheesy, sausage-filled crescents are crowd-pleasers that come together fast. Whether you’re hosting a brunch or looking for an easy make-ahead breakfast, this recipe delivers warm, comforting flavor in every bite.
Enjoy!
