This festive sausage wreath — the best kind of holiday wreath — maxes out the flavor with melty Celebration IPA beer cheese.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Celebration Fresh Hop IPA
- 1 lb sausage, casings removed
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 x 8-oz packages of refrigerated crescent roll dough
Step 1
Heat oven to 375°F.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon and let cool in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
Add mozzarella and Celebration IPA, stirring well to combine.
Step 4
Open packages of crescent rolls, and separate into triangles. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange dough evenly in a circle, with the pointed ends facing out and ends overlapping.
Step 5
Spoon sausage and beer cheese mixture around the center of the ring. Bring the pointy tip of the dough over the sausage mixture, and tuck its end under the inside of the circle. Repeat for all dough triangles until all the filling is enclosed.*
Step 6
Bake in oven for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 5–7 minutes before serving.
*For a glossy surface, brush the outside of the dough wreath with an egg wash.
