Ingredients

• 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
• 6 links sausages
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons optional sesame seeds (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Defrost the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions until pliable, but still cold.

Step 3

Slice each sausage link into halves lengthwise. You will have 12 sausage pieces in total.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to create the surprise filling.

Step 5

Unroll each puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 evenly-sized squares, giving you 12 squares in total.

Step 6

Place a sausage half on one corner of a puff pastry square. Add about 1 tablespoon of the cheese-mustard mixture on top of the sausage.

Step 7

Fold the opposite corner of the puff pastry square over the sausage, forming a triangle. Pinch the edges together firmly to seal, then crimp with a fork for extra security.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.

Step 9

Place the sealed bundles onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the egg wash for a golden finish. If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added crunch.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 11

Allow the sausage bundles to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm as an appetizer or with a side salad for a satisfying meal.
