- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 oz (115g) cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 egg, beaten (for brushing)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, combine the cooked sausage, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until the filling is evenly blended.
- Shape the Crescent Ring: On the prepared baking sheet, arrange the crescent roll dough in a circular pattern, with the wide ends overlapping in the center and the pointed ends facing outward, forming a sun-like shape.
- Add the Filling: Spoon the sausage and cheese mixture evenly along the wide ends of the crescent dough.
- Fold and Seal: Fold the pointed ends of the dough over the filling, tucking them under the wide ends to seal the ring.
- Brush with Egg Wash: Lightly brush the top of the crescent ring with the beaten egg for a golden, glossy finish.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and slice into portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
