🛒 Ingredients
- 1 pound ground sausage (mild or spicy)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
- Optional:
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Chopped green onions or parsley
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Sausage
Place a skillet over medium heat and add the ground sausage. Break it apart using a spatula as it cooks. Continue cooking until the sausage is fully browned and no pink remains.
Once done, drain any excess grease to avoid a soggy filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Creamy Filling
Lower the heat and add the softened cream cheese directly into the cooked sausage. Stir continuously until the cream cheese melts and blends smoothly with the sausage.
If you’re adding extras like cheddar cheese, garlic powder, or pepper, mix them in now. The result should be a thick, creamy, and well-combined filling.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly so it’s easier to handle.
Step 3: Prepare the Crescent Dough
Open the crescent roll cans and carefully unroll the dough. Separate it into individual triangles along the perforated lines.
Lay them flat on a clean surface or baking sheet.
