Sausage Crescent Bites

It doesn't get any easier than this for breakfast.  It's perfect for having friends over for breakfast, or taking to a brunch, or a shower, or overnight guests.  Super simple and just a few ingredients.

1lb. of your favorite sausage, browned and crumbled (we like Jimmy Dean Sage sausage)

2 pkgs. crescent dough

1 block cream cheese

salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Brown and crumble the sausage in a skillet and drain the grease.

Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the cooked sausage.

Add the block of cream and stir until the cream cheese is melted and coating all of the sausage.  Set aside.

On a baking sheet, unroll one package of crescent dough and gently press the seams together.  Spread the sausage mixture over the dough leaving a 1/2" border all around the edges.

Unroll the second package of crescent dough over top of the sausage mixture.  Seal the 1/2" border together and gently press the seams together.

Bake in your preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown.  Remove from the oven and cut into 1-2 inch squares (however big you want your bites).  A pizza cutter makes super quick work of this.  

*If you want to do some prep the night before, you can brown the sausage and keep it in the fridge.  When you're ready, just reheat it in the skillet and add the cream cheese once the sausage has been heated.
