Two ingredients? We're not kidding! You can't believe how easy and delicious these little numbers are. You can also bake them in advance. Reheat them in a warm oven and they'll taste like you just made them.

Makes 32 swirls

Two 8-ounce cans refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
1 pound ground sausage, mild for kids, hot for adults, or sage if you prefer

1. Separate 1 can of dough and form into 4 rectangles. Firmly press the perforations to seal. Take the uncooked sausage and cut it into 8 chunks. Using 4 chunks of the sausage, spread each of the rectangles with a thin layer (about 1/8 inch thick). Starting at the short end, roll each rectangle tightly into a cylinder. Repeat with the other can of dough and remaining sausage. Place on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and chill until firm, about 30 minutes, then cut each roll into 4 slices.

2. When read to bake, preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the sausage swirls ½-inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until golden brown and the sausage is thoroughly cooked.
