Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 packages refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- butter or nonstick cooking spray (for greasing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and fully cooked. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks to crumble it evenly.
Once the sausage is cooked through, drain any excess grease from the skillet.
Add the cream cheese to the skillet with the sausage and stir until melted and combined. Remove from heat.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and set the sausage mixture aside to cool slightly.
Unroll one package of the crescent roll dough and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form a crust.
Spread the sausage mixture evenly over the bottom crust.
Unroll the second package of crescent roll dough and place it on top of the sausage mixture to form the top crust. Gently press the edges to seal the layers together.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top crust is golden brown.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy!
