These Sausage Cream Cheese Crescents are the kind of recipe that disappears from the plate almost as soon as they come out of the oven. Flaky crescent dough wraps around a warm, savory filling of browned sausage, creamy cream cheese, and melted shredded cheese, creating a perfect balance of crispy, soft, and gooey in every bite. They’re simple to prepare, require just a handful of ingredients, and deliver a rich, comforting flavor that works equally well for breakfast, brunch, game day, or holiday gatherings.
To make them, cook and lightly cool the sausage, then mix it with cream cheese, shredded cheese, and a touch of pepper until smooth and well combined. Cut crescent dough into smaller triangles, place a spoonful of filling at the wide end, roll them up, and bake until beautifully golden. In about fifteen minutes, you’ll have warm, irresistible crescents ready to serve. Easy, crowd-pleasing, and endlessly snackable, they’re a guaranteed favorite for any occasion.
