Description
Every Texas household knows that when Halloween rolls around, it’s not just about the costumes — it’s about the snacks. From backyard bonfires to church fall festivals, there’s always that one treat everyone looks forward to, and these Scary Sausage Rolls are sure to steal the show. They’re the kind of spooky snack that brings big smiles and even bigger appetites, made simple with buttery crescent dough and your favorite flavor of Kountry Boys Sausage.
They might look like mummies, but don’t let the wrapping fool you — these rolls are packed with bold Texas flavor. There’s something special about the smell of buttery pastry and sizzling sausage filling up the kitchen, especially when it’s cool outside and you’ve got a table full of candy and cider waiting nearby. Easy to make, fun to serve and even better to eat, these little mummies have a way of disappearing faster than you can bake the next batch.
Wrapping Up Some Texas-Sized Flavor
There’s no trick to this Halloween treat — just a few simple steps that make a big impact. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F, because a hot oven is key to getting that perfect golden crust. Then comes the fun part: wrapping up the “mummies.”
Cut your crescent roll dough into thin strips, about a quarter inch wide. Each strip will stretch a little as you work, so don’t worry about making them perfect — a few uneven edges just add to the charm. Take a Kountry Boys Sausage and start wrapping it like a little mummy, leaving a small gap near the top for its “eyes.”
The smell of that sausage already hints at what’s to come — smoky, savory and packed with that Texas-style spice Kountry Boys is known for. Once all your mummies are wrapped, line them up on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven. In about 20 minutes, you’ll have golden, flaky pastries wrapped around juicy, flavorful sausage links.
When they come out, let them cool just long enough to handle, then grab your mustard and dot on two little eyes. It’s a simple touch, but it’s what turns this quick snack into a Halloween favorite that kids (and grown-ups) can’t resist.
Tips for Making Perfect Sausage Mummies
Want your Scary Sausage Rolls to turn out bakery-worthy every time? Here are a few quick tips to make your batch even better:
- Use cold dough. Chilled crescent roll dough is easier to handle and keeps its shape better while baking.
- Don’t skip the gaps. Leaving space for the “eyes” helps each roll bake evenly and gives them that classic mummy look.
- Line your baking sheet. A little parchment paper goes a long way toward easy cleanup.
- Brush with butter. For a glossy, golden finish, lightly brush melted butter over the rolls right before they hit the oven.
- Play with flavor. Try swapping in different Kountry Boys Sausage varieties — like Pico de Gallo or Queso— for a little extra flavor.
These little tricks make a big difference, especially when you’re whipping up several batches for a crowd.
A Texas Twist Worth Sharing
What makes these Scary Sausage Rolls extra special is how easy they are to make ahead. You can assemble them the night before a party, store them in the fridge and pop them in the oven just before guests arrive. They come out warm and buttery every time — perfect for serving alongside a bowl of chili, a tray of deviled eggs or a few handfuls of popcorn for movie night.
And if you’re looking to take these rolls beyond Halloween, swap out the mustard eyes for melted cheese or serve them with a dipping sauce. They fit right in at football watch parties, holiday potlucks or even lazy Sunday breakfasts. No matter the season, Kountry Boys Sausage brings that hearty, homestyle flavor that turns something simple into something memorable.
There’s no denying it — these little mummies may look scary, but they’re downright delicious. It’s the kind of recipe that reminds us good food doesn’t have to be complicated. Just a few ingredients, a hot oven and the Texas touch that makes every bite feel like home.
