These Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls are the perfect savory treat for breakfast or an appetizer. Featuring flaky crescent roll dough, creamy cheese, and savory sausage, they’re irresistibly delicious and easy to prepare.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 (8-ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sausage:

    • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon while cooking.
    • Drain any excess grease and set aside.
  2. Mix the Cream Cheese Filling:

    • In a medium-sized bowl, mix the softened cream cheese and milk until smooth.
    • Add shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder (if using), then mix until combined.
  3. Combine Ingredients:

    • Stir the cooked sausage into the cream cheese mixture, ensuring everything is evenly incorporated.
  4. Preheat Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  5. Assemble the Crescent Rolls:

    • Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate each triangle.
    • Place a spoonful of the sausage cream cheese mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
  6. Roll and Seal:

    • Starting from the wide end, gently roll the triangle toward the narrow tip to form a crescent roll.
    • Pinch the edges lightly to seal the filling.
  7. Bake:

    • Place the crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with melted butter for a golden finish.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown.
  8. Garnish and Serve:

    • Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes:

  • For added flavor, try sprinkling a pinch of paprika or cayenne pepper into the cream cheese mixture.
  • These rolls are great for meal prep! Store in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the oven before serving.
