Recipe for the Week: Sausage Crescent Cheese Balls
Ingredients: 1lb bulk spicy sausage, 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (8 oz), 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves, crushed, 1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent rolls, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line 15-by10-by1-inch pan with foil; spray with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix sausage, cheese and rosemary; mix well using hands or spoon. Unroll crescent dough on work surface; coat each side of dough with 1 tablespoon flour. Using pizza cutter or knife, cut dough into about 1/4-inch pieces. Mix crescent dough pieces into bowl of sausage mixture in small amounts until well blended. Shape mixture into 42 (1 1/4-inch) balls. Place in pan. Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until golden brown. To add a little kick (especially if you use sausage that’s not spicy), add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes or 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce. You can make the sausage cheese balls ahead. Just place on pan, cover with foil and reheat in the oven at 350 degrees until heated through
