Alright, folks, let’s talk about this crescent roll cream cheese sausage casserole I whipped up the other day. I saw a bunch of people talking about it online, and I thought, “Why not give it a shot?” Plus, I’m always down for a good, hearty breakfast dish that’s easy to make.
Getting Started
First things first, I gathered all my ingredients. I had some sausages in the fridge, and a pack of those crescent rolls that everyone seems to love. Got some cream cheese too, because why not? Cream cheese makes everything better, right? I also had some other stuff on hand – like eggs, milk, you know, the usual breakfast casserole suspects.
Prepping the Sausage
I started by cooking the sausage. Just browned it in a pan, making sure it was cooked all the way through. Drained the grease, because no one likes a greasy casserole. While the sausage was cooling down, I moved on to the next step.
Mixing It All Up
In a big bowl, I whisked together the eggs, milk, and some seasonings. Nothing fancy, just salt, pepper, and a bit of garlic powder. Then, I threw in the cooked sausage and the cream cheese. I cut the cream cheese into little cubes so it would mix in better. Stirred it all up until it was nice and combined.
Assembling the Casserole
Now for the fun part – putting it all together. I unrolled the crescent roll dough and laid it out in a baking dish. Then, I poured the sausage and cream cheese mixture over the dough. I made sure to spread it out evenly. Finally, topped with the remaining crescent rolls.
Baking Time
Into the oven it went. I baked it at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 25-30 minutes, or until it was golden brown and bubbly. The smell wafting through the kitchen was amazing, let me tell you. I could hardly wait to dig in.
The Final Result
- It turned out pretty darn good, if I do say so myself.
- The crescent rolls were all flaky and buttery, and the sausage and cream cheese filling was rich and flavorful.
- It’s definitely a hearty dish, perfect for a weekend brunch or a potluck.
I did notice that the casserole was a bit on the runny side. Next time, I might try to reduce the liquid or add a little cornstarch slurry to thicken it up. But overall, it was a success. My family loved it, and I’ll definitely be making it again. It’s a keeper for sure!
Give it a try, folks. It is not very difficult and it will make you feel you made a big meal with little effort. Enjoy!
