Jalapeno Sausage Crescent Rolls

(3)

Jalapeno sausage crescent rolls blend the best of two worlds. Jalapeno poppers and pigs in a blanket. They aren't the traditional small size appetizers, so they're perfect for a satisfying snack. These get double jalapeno flavor with jalapeno-smoked sausage. If you want an even fancier presentation, use puff pastry.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent roll dough

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • 6 jalapeno peppers, halved and seeded

  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste

  • 6 smoked jalapeno sausages, halved

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Unwrap crescent dough and separate into 12 triangles onto a clean work surface. Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons cream cheese into each jalapeno half and press a sausage half into the mixture. Place stuffed jalapenos on top of the crescent triangles and sprinkle with 1 to 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese. Wrap stuffed jalapeno with crescent dough.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until dough has puffed up and is lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

Cook's Note:

You will end up with leftover crescent dough. Just roll it up and bake as instructed on the package.
