Ingredients
1 pound pork sausage
8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tubes refrigerated crescent roll dough
Instructions
1. Cook the sausage in a skillet over medium heat until fully browned and crumbled. Drain excess grease.
2. Add the cream cheese to the hot sausage and stir until completely melted and combined.
3. Separate the crescent dough into triangles and lay them out on parchment paper.
4. Spoon a tablespoon of sausage mixture onto the wide end of each triangle. Top with a pinch of shredded cheddar.
5. Roll each triangle up, starting from the wide end. Seal edges if needed to prevent leaking.
6. Place crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Bake at 375°F for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and puffy.
8. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Make sure the sausage is fully browned for the best flavor.
Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest texture.
Roll the crescents tightly to keep the filling from escaping.
