Crescent Sausage Bites

Crescent Sausage Bites

1 lb breakfast sausage

2 packages classic crescent rolls

8 oz cream cheese, cut into chunks

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

pinch of red pepper flakes

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line/grease a baking sheet, set aside.

Crumble and brown the breakfast sausage over medium heat, seasoning with salt, pepper, and pepper flakes about halfway through cooking. Drain and return to the stove. Add the cream cheese, stirring till softened and thoroughly mixed.

Unroll one package of crescent rolls and place on a baking sheet. Press the seams together with yoru fingers to seal them.

Spread the sausage mixture over the dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border along the edges.

Unroll the remaining package of crescent rolls and place on top of the sausage mixture. Press the edges together to seal, and press the seams together.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until crescent roll dough is deep golden brown. (If you pull it out too early, the dough will be soggy on the inside) Cut into small squares and serve.
