How to cook deliciously - Savory Sausage Cups

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2. Stage

Add sausage to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir with a spatula, breaking apart sausage until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and let cool.

Combine regular and vegetable cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onion, and cooled, crumbled sausage in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.

4. Stage

Unroll 1 crescent dough sheet and press it into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut 6 rows across and 4 rows vertically to yield 24 squares. Repeat with second package of dough.

5. Stage

Place 1 square in each cup of two nonstick 24-cup mini muffin tins, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.

6. Stage

Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of sausage filling into each cup. Filling should be up to the top of the cup, but you do not need to press it down.

Bake in the preheated oven until dough is golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.

8. Stage

Cool for 5 minutes in the tins before removing to a platter.
