Description
A crowd-pleaser appetizer combining spicy jalapenos, creamy cheese, and smoky sausage wrapped in flaky crescent dough.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package Smoky Sausage Links
- 2–3 Jalapeno Peppers, diced
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 8 oz Cream Cheese, softened
- 1 package Crescent Dough
Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to the crescent dough package instructions, usually around 375°F (190°C).
- Mix together softened cream cheese, diced jalapenos, and shredded cheddar cheese until smooth and well-combined in a medium bowl.
- Roll out the refrigerated crescent dough on a clean surface and cut it into triangles.
- Place a smoky sausage link at the broader end of each triangle and top with a generous spoonful of the cream cheese mixture.
- Carefully roll the dough around the filling, tucking it snugly, and place each wrapped pig on a lined baking sheet, seam side down.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and crispy, about 12-15 minutes.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Make-ahead tip: Prepare the cream cheese filling a day earlier and store it in the fridge. Use an air fryer at 380°F for a healthier option.
