baked sausage cream cheese crescents

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. If you’re using cheddar cheese, fold it in now.

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.

Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture onto the wide end of each triangle and roll up towards the narrow end, pinching the edges to seal.

Place the crescents on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a shiny, golden finish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crescents are golden brown.

Allow to cool slightly before serving.
