Make simple, savory bites using crescent roll dough stuffed with cooked chorizo and cheese. These are quick to prepare and bake well for snacks or parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1/2 pound bulk pork chorizo sausage
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cook the chorizo in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks, until fully browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. Separate the dough into 8 triangles.
  4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cooked chorizo onto the wide end of each triangle. Top the chorizo with about 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese.
  5. Roll each triangle up tightly, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the point. Pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside.
  6. Place the rolled bites seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush the tops of the rolls lightly with the beaten egg wash.
  8. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can prepare these bites ahead of time and refrigerate them for up to 12 hours before baking. Add 2-3 minutes to the baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.
  • Serve these warm with a side of sour cream or salsa for dipping.
  • If you prefer a less spicy flavor, use mild chorizo sausage.
