Savory Sausage Cups

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
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.

Step 3
Combine regular and vegetable cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onion, and cooled, crumbled sausage in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.

Step 4
Unroll 1 crescent dough sheet and press it into a 9×12-inch rectangle. Cut 6 rows across and 4 rows vertically to yield 24 squares. Repeat with second package of dough.

Step 5
Place 1 square in each cup of two nonstick 24-cup mini muffin tins, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.

Step 6
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.

Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until dough is golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.

Step 8
Cool for 5 minutes in the tins before removing to a platter.
