Directions
- Let puff pastry sit at room temperature until it can be unfolded without breaking (the pastry should be cool but pliable).

- Cut pastry sheet into thirds along fold lines. Roll each piece out to about 4x9".
- Cut "brick" of sausage lengthwise into 3 pieces; gently roll each into a log the same length as the pastry pieces.
- Place a sausage log lengthwise in the center of a pastry piece; brush one long edge with water. Roll pastry up and over sausage; press edge to seal. Repeat with remaining sausage and pastry; set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon.
- Brush tops of rolls with egg; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Cut each roll evenly into 8 pieces; place 2" apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden-brown (10-15 min.).
- Remove from oven; let cool for 5 min.
- Serve with desired garnishes.
Tasty Tip:
