Party Sausage Puffs Hors d' Oeuvres

Step 1: Thaw 1 pastry sheet for about 20 minutes (once thawed, make sure it remains cold. I normally let it thaw in the fridge overnight. The colder the pastry is the puffier it'll get once baked). Heat a skillet over your stove top and cook the sausage; cool, and cut in halves (crossways).

Step 2: On a lightly floured board, unfold pastry and roll into a 12 x 18-inch rectangle. Brush with beaten egg mixture and cut in 24 (3-inch) squares. Sprinkle a little cheese cheese in the center of the square and top with a piece of sausage. Add some chili sauce, tomato, onion, or any combination of the three. Bring up two opposite corners of pastry and pinch firmly to seal.

Step 3: Bake on ungreased baking sheet in a preheated 400-degree F oven for 12 - 15 minutes, until golden. Makes 24 hors d' oeuvres.
