Sausage Cheese Crescents image

My mother says that my grandmother made the best butterhorns. I never tasted hers, but my mom's were delicious and grandma, of course, taught her. Through the years, my mom filled butter horns with everything, from fruit, to seafood, to meats and all sorts of nuts and raisins. I always got a kick out of trying to guess what was in them. This recipe is ideal for brunch or lunch. -Paula Marchesi, Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crescents didn't rise very much. They were still tasty, but they didn't look as impressive as I had hoped.

These were a little too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the crescents didn't turn out as flaky as I had hoped.

These were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would try using less sausage next time.

I'm not a huge fan of sausage, but these crescents were surprisingly good. The cheese and crescent dough really balanced out the flavor of the sausage.
