Absolutely! Here’s a simple, delicious recipe for Sausage Cream Cheese Crescents that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack:
Sausage Cream Cheese Crescents
Ingredients:
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled (or use store-bought cooked sausage)
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for extra cheesiness)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. - Prepare Crescent Dough:
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforations. - Mix Filling:
In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, cooked sausage, shredded cheddar (if using), and garlic powder. Mix until well combined. - Fill Crescents:
Spoon about 1–2 tablespoons of the sausage-cream cheese mixture onto the wide end of each crescent triangle. - Roll:
Starting from the wide end, roll each triangle toward the point. Place the rolled crescents on the prepared baking sheet, point side down. - Bake:
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescents are golden brown. - Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle with parsley or chives if desired. Serve warm.
Tips & Variations:
- Spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or use spicy sausage.
- Cheesy: Add mozzarella or pepper jack for a gooey twist.
- Make-Ahead: Assemble and refrigerate for a few hours, then bake before serving.
These are creamy, savory, and perfect for any occasion—everyone will ask for seconds!
