I’ve used cream cheese for years in my sausage balls. You will never make them again without it. So moist and not your normal dry sausage ball

These are easy to put together and yummy. My family loved them. We will make them again. That said if I had one thing to add to this it would be to turn the meatballs half way so that the bottoms aren’t so hard.

Yummy and tender! I like that I didn’t have to buy bisquick for this version. And the cream cheese keeps them from turning into hockey pucks. I doubled the recipe and used 1lb mild and 1lb spicy sausage, for a little heat. My go-to for sausage balls.
