Ingredients

48 servings

  • 1 (16 ounce) package Jimmy Dean® Premium Pork Regular Sausage
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 4 ounces garden vegetable cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped green onion
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages crescent roll sheets

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Add sausage to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir with a spatula, breaking apart sausage until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and let cool.
  • Combine regular and vegetable cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onion, and cooled, crumbled sausage in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  • Unroll 1 crescent dough sheet and press it into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut 6 rows across and 4 rows vertically to yield 24 squares. Repeat with second package of dough.
  • Place 1 square in each cup of two nonstick 24-cup mini muffin tins, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
  • Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of sausage filling into each cup. Filling should be up to the top of the cup, but you do not need to press it down.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until dough is golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
  • Cool for 5 minutes in the tins before removing to a platter.
