Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls
These quick and easy sausage and cream cheese crescent rolls are deliciously savory pinwheels made with just 3 ingredients! Serve them as a snack or appetizer at your next party.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 pound ground sausage
- 1 package of crescent rolls
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Crumble sausage and cook thoroughly in a pan. Drain fat from pan and allow sausage to cool.
- Combine cream cheese and sausage in a bowl and mix well.
- Open package of crescents and roll out into a rectangle on a flat surface without separating the crescents. Press together and seal the perforated lines in the rolls.
- Spoon sausage and cream cheese mixture onto the dough, spreading all over.
- Roll the dough lengthwise. Wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or throw it in the freezer if you're in a hurry. You could also make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight. The main thing is to get the roll firm enough to slice easily.
- Cut slices to about 1/4 inch and place on cookie sheet.
- Bake for about 13-15 minutes or until they are golden on top.
Notes
- Makes 20-25 crescent rolls.
- To Store & Reheat: Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or a 350°F oven until warmed through.
- To Freeze: Place cooled crescent rolls into a freezer-safe container and store for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.
