Ingredients
  • 1 pound regular breakfast sausage
  • 12 eggs
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 8 rolls of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
  • Approximately 4 inch heart cookie cutter
Instructions
  1. In a skillet cook up your breakfast sausage and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl whisk up your eggs and then pour them into another skillet over medium to medium low heat.
  3. Using a rubber spatula constantly scrape the sides of your pan until the eggs are nice and fluffy.
  4. Turn off your heat and then add your sausage to the eggs and stir them all up.
  5. Grate your cheese.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
  7. To prepare your dough open up the first can of crescent rolls and then roll it out on a cookie sheet. I just used my hands to spread it out all even into a nice rectangle and pinch together any holes that were in the dough.
  8. Next take your heart shaped cookie cutter and cut out six heart shapes.
  9. Remove your excess dough from around the hearts. Use a small knife if needed to help separate the outside dough from the hearts.
  10. Then I actually transferred 3 of the hearts to another cookie sheet that I was going to bake them on before I added the filling, this way I could save the first cookie sheet for the next batch of dough. Then fill the 3 hearts that your moved with about ¼ cup of your sausage/egg mixture.
  11. Top with 1-2 tablespoons cheese.
  12. Cover those hearts with your other 3 remaining hearts to make the tops of your sandwiches.
  13. Pull the top dough around as best you can over the filling and then crimp the sides all around with a fork so it will stay together.
  14. After those three hearts are done roll out another dough sheet on your first cookie sheet and continue the steps of cutting out your hearts and adding the filling.
  15. When your cookie sheet with the completed hearts is filled up, put them in the oven for 10 minutes and then turn them over and cook for about 4 more minutes to make sure they are all done on the bottom.
  16. Continue this process until all your hearts are made!
