Ingredients

Instructions

1. Prepare the Sausage Filling

• In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until fully browned.
• Drain any excess grease and allow the sausage to cool slightly.

2. Assemble the Crescent Ring

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
• On a large baking sheet, unroll the crescent roll dough and separate into triangles.
• Arrange the triangles in a circular shape, with the pointed ends facing outward and the wide ends overlapping in the center.
• Sprinkle half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough.
• Add the cooked sausage on top, followed by the remaining cheese.
• Fold the pointed ends of the dough over the filling and tuck them under the center to form a ring.

3. Bake the Crescent Ring

• Lightly brush the top of the ring with melted butter or an egg wash.
• Sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes if desired.
• Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.

4. Serve and Enjoy

• Allow the ring to cool slightly.
• Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
• Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce — marinara, ranch, or honey mustard all work beautifully.
