Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Pinwheels
So a couple weeks ago I got together with some of my favorite ladies for a luncheon prior to us all going to see The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 together. My mom and I were hosting the lunch and one of the things we decided to include was Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Pinwheels, which amazingly my mom had not heard of.
Now I initially wasn’t going to blog about this amazing appetizer because I assumed most people were already aware of them – despite my mother’s lack of awareness. So imagine my shock when the other 4 women showed up and had also never heard of them!
Seriously!?!? These will change your life!
And they did. They could not stop eating them. And the best part is that they are SO easy to make. So easy that my mom had me make some for the Panther’s tailgate the next morning. They were a hit at the game too. They are always a hit. They are just that good.
So for those of you who live under a rock (no offense, I love you all), this recipe is for you. Get aquatinted with these tasty things because you will want to make them over and over. You’re welcome.

Do you slice them through before baking or after?
Slice before baking.
Do you use breakfast sausage or regular??
I use regular ground sausage.
i bet hot turkey sausage would be good
I bet it would!
Do you use some kind of cut out to get them in a circular shape? They look delicious!
Thanks Rachael! When you roll it up lengthwise, it’s like a little log. When you slice them, they have that round shape.
Do you cut them before or after they are cooked?
You cut them before you cook them.
Hi.. have made these for years, especially when camping.. instead of the crescent rolls, we use english muffins.. but i am going to try the crescent rolls.. Thank you for some great recipes
The english muffins sound good too!
Without trying to sound crazy…. Am I missing it or do you not drain the sausage?
Hi Lisa! You don’t sound crazy, I guess I just kind of assumed that step since I’m so used to doing it, but you’re right, it should probably be written just in case. I’ll add it now. Thanks!

what are crescent rolls?
Here’s a link to them.
How many does that make? I’m looking at feeding a small army with finger foods soon. Thanks! ๐
Hey Abby! You should be able to get around 20-25 of them, depending on how thick you cut them. Good luck with feeding your army. ๐
Perfect! Thanks!!
Shut up that sounds AMAZING. You can add me to the list of people who’s never heard of them but excited to make them. Love your ideas Linds!
