2 cans (8 ounces each) crescent roll dough

Approximately 20 ounces of pork sausage crumbles

8 ounces of cream cheese

Instructions:

 

Preheat the Oven: Start by setting your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s at the optimal temperature for baking.

 

Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula, until it’s thoroughly cooked and no longer pink. Drain any excess fat as needed.

 

Add Cream Cheese: Lower the heat to a simmer and stir in the cream cheese with the sausage. Mix until the cream cheese is fully melted and combined with the sausage, creating a creamy filling. Remove from heat.

 

Prepare the Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish, covering the surface evenly. If necessary, pinch together the seams to form a single dough layer.

 

Layer the Filling: Evenly spread the sausage and cream cheese mixture over the first layer of crescent dough in the baking dish.

 

Add the Top Layer: Place the second can of crescent dough over the filling, forming the top crust of the casserole.

 

Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the dough has puffed and turned golden brown.

 

Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm and enjoy the delightful simplicity of this 3 Ingredient Sausage Cream Cheese Casserole.
