Best Sausage Cream Cheese Pinwheels Recipes

SAUSAGE AND CREAM CHEESE PINWHEELS

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes; drain and discard grease.
• Spread dough from 1 package of crescent rolls out onto a work surface and pinch perforations together to create a single sheet of dough. Spread half the cream cheese over the dough sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch margin all around. Sprinkle half the cooked sausage evenly over cream cheese. Roll dough up into a log, starting at a long edge; wrap log in plastic wrap or parchment paper. Repeat steps to make a second roll; wrap. Refrigerate rolls at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Unwrap rolls and cut each into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place slices onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pinwheels are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.

SAUSAGE, CREAM CHEESE PINWHEELS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• 1. Crumble sausage and cook thoroughly in a pan. Drain fat from pan and allow sausage to cool. 2. Combine cream cheese and sausage in a bowl and mix well. 3. Open package of crescents and roll out into a rectangle on a flat surface without separating the crescents. Press together and seal the perforated lines in the rolls. 4. Spoon sausage and cream cheese mixture onto the dough, spreading all over. 5. Roll the dough lengthwise. Wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or throw it in the freezer if you're in a hurry. You could also make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight. The main thing is to get the roll firm enough to slice easily. 6. Cut slices to about 1/4 inch and place on cookie sheet. 7. Bake at 375 degrees for about 13-15 minutes or until they are golden on top.
