🥐 Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls

🧾 Ingredients

• 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 300–400g sausage (breakfast sausage or mildly spiced ground sausage)
• 225g cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional but delicious)
• ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
• ½ tsp black pepper

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Cook the sausage:
   In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess grease.

   Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
   Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles.
4. Fill & roll:
   Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
   Roll up toward the tip and place on a lined baking sheet.
5. Bake:
   Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
6. Serve:
   Let cool slightly before serving—the filling will be hot.
