Ingredients

Preparation Method

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that your crescent rolls bake evenly and turn golden brown.

Brown the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until it’s fully browned, breaking it up as it cooks. Depending on your preference, you can use mild sausage for a more subtle flavor, or spicy sausage for an extra kick. If you like, add a pinch of salt and pepper to the sausage while it cooks. Once browned, drain any excess fat from the pan.

Melt in the Cream Cheese: With the skillet still on low heat, add the cream cheese to the cooked sausage. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is completely melted and well-incorporated into the sausage, creating a creamy, flavorful filling.

Prepare the Crescent Roll Dough: Unroll one pack of crescent roll dough and place it on a greased baking sheet. Press the seams of the dough together to form a solid sheet, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.

Spread the Sausage Mixture: Evenly spread the sausage and cream cheese mixture over the crescent roll sheet, leaving the 1/2-inch border around the edges for sealing.

Top with the Second Crescent Roll Sheet: Unroll the second pack of crescent roll dough and carefully place it over the sausage mixture. Gently press down the edges to seal the two layers together. This will create a nice, compact square that holds in all the delicious filling.

Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn’t over-bake.

Slice and Serve: Once the crescent roll squares are baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Slice the pastry into small squares, and they’re ready to serve! These sausage squares are delicious warm, making them an ideal snack or party appetizer.

Tips and Conclusion

Bonus Tip:
You can customize this recipe even further by adding shredded cheese to the sausage mixture or sprinkling cheese on top of the second crescent roll layer before baking. For a breakfast version, consider adding scrambled eggs to the filling along with the sausage and cream cheese.

Conclusion:
These Crescent Roll Sausage Squares are the perfect combination of savory, creamy, and buttery flavors. They’re simple to prepare, highly adaptable, and always a crowd-pleaser. Whether you’re making them for a family breakfast, a holiday gathering, or as a quick appetizer for a party, these sausage squares are sure to be a hit. Serve them warm, and watch as they disappear from the table in no time!
