These sausage pockets where so easy to make and so delicious. I used crescent sheets cut into rectangle shapes using a knife. You could also use a large cookie cutter, heart or circle would be fun shapes. If you have never used the crescent sheets, give them a try. I found them fun to work with. To get started you will need:

Sausage Pockets 

1 pound sausage
1 8-oz. package cream cheese
1 egg lightly beaten
crescent sheets   
sesame seeds

First brown and thoroughly cook the sausage on medium heat, drain, reduce heat to medium-low. Return sausage to pan and add 8-oz. cream cheese, cubed. Stir until melted. Unroll your crescent sheets and cut into desired shapes. Fill bottom half of crescent with sausage mixture, leaving room around edges for sealing, add top half. Crimp edges with a fork to seal. Cut X on top of each crescent. Brush tops lightly with egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake using baking time and temperature for crescent sheets. Serve warm.
