These are really fantastic. My spouse requires me to leave at least ten behind for him at every potluck even though I bring them with me.

This is absolutely a family favorite. They will even playfully fight over them. I made them using the dough as rectangles and it made logs. I made it with the triangles. I added shredded cheese before I wrap them and chopped onion to mix. It’s a recipe I can play around with. Love it

Very good recipe. I had left over croissants already made up. Did not have jalapeños so I used pepper jelly. Made up the mix and then put in oven to warm them up. Kids loved them.

We loved these! I didn’t have a jalapeno, but I did have Jalapeno Jelly! After these baked we spread the croissant with the Jalapeno jelly and made pigs of our selves!!
Linda Riley

I made these and they’re actually pretty terrible. Edible, but unsatisfying and a waste of good ingredient. Never making this again!

I made this recipe for a wrestling tournament and made approximately 100 of the little bites of love. These were a huge hit with the moms, wrestlers, coaches and refs. Thank you for this recipe!!! I will use this over and over again.

I used cayenne pepper instead of jalapeno because I didn’t have any and it turned out great! I also prefer the Extra Sage sausage. Great Recipe.
