A delightful and easy-to-make dish perfect for brunch or a quick dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the crescent rolls.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.
Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break the sausage into small, even pieces for better distribution in the filling.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet and stir in the softened cream cheese, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the cream cheese melts and coats the sausage evenly.
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Ensure the dough covers the entire bottom of the dish, pressing any seams together.
Spread the sausage and cream cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
Spread the filling evenly to ensure every bite has a good balance of flavors.
Unroll the second can of crescent roll dough and place it over the filling, pinching the edges to seal.
Pinching the edges helps to keep the filling contained during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Check the dish halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
Let cool slightly before slicing into squares and serving.
Allowing the dish to cool slightly makes it easier to cut into clean squares.
