- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven

- In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
- Prepare cream cheese filling
- In a bowl, mix softened cream cheese, cooked sausage, cheddar (if using), and garlic powder until combined.
- Assemble crescents
- Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles.
- Spoon 1–2 tablespoons of the sausage-cream cheese mixture onto the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll up toward the point to form crescents.

💡 Tips:

- For extra flavor, sprinkle a little paprika or shredded Parmesan on top before baking.
- These can be made ahead and reheated in the oven for a quick snack.
If you want, I can give a mini muffin version where you bake them in a muffin tin—less rolling, bite-sized, and perfect for meal prep or parties.
