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
- refrigerated crescent roll dough: 2 packages (8 ounce packages)
- cream cheese: 1 pack (8 ounce pack, softened)
- jalapeno peppers, halved and: 6 piece (seeded)
- cheddar cheese: 0.5 cup (to taste, shredded)
- smoked jalapeno sausages: 6 piece (halved)
