Step 4: Prepare the Crescent Rolls

  1. Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles.
  2. Place a generous spoonful of the sausage cream cheese mixture near the wide end of each triangle.

Don’t overfill — otherwise, the filling might leak out while baking.


Step 5: Roll and Shape

  1. Starting from the wide end, roll each triangle toward the point to form a crescent shape.
  2. Place the rolled crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. Optional: Brush the tops lightly with milk or egg wash for extra golden color.

Step 6: Bake

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown and puffed up.
  2. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly for 2–3 minutes.

Serve warm for the best cheesy, savory experience.


Step 7: Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with dried parsley or fresh herbs for a touch of color. Serve on a platter for a party, or enjoy as a snack with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.

  • Cheese Options: Try mixing cream cheese with mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the crescents in advance, refrigerate them, and bake just before serving.
