Ingredients:  
1 roll Jimmy Dean sausage
8 oz. block cream cheese
1 can crescent rolls

Directions:
Crumble sausage and cook thoroughly in a pan. Drain fat from pan. Combine cream cheese and sausage and mix well. Let cool slightly. Open package of crescents and roll out into a rectangle on a flat surface without separating the crescents. Press together and seal the perforated lines. Spoon sausage and cream cheese mixture onto the dough, spreading all over. Roll the dough lengthwise. Wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or throw it in the freezer if you're in a hurry. You could also make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight. The main thing is to get the roll firm enough to slice easily. Cut slices to about 1/4 inch and place on cookie sheet. Bake at 375º for about 13-15 minutes or until they are golden on top.

You can also get a second can of crescent rolls and instead of creating the pinwheels, just lay the second sheet of dough on top of the mixture and press to seal the sides (like a pie). Then bake and cut into squares.
