Jimmy Dean Sausage Twirls



"Biscuit mix makes this attractive appetizer delightfully easy."
Original recipe yield: 48 appetizers.
Servings:
48

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 (16 ounce) package Regular Flavor Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage
  • 2 cups biscuit mix
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Combine biscuit mix, milk and butter in large bowl. Stir to blend well; refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
  2. Divide dough into 2 equal portions; roll one on a piece of parchment or waxed paper to a 1/8 inch thick rectangle about 10inches x 7 inches. Spread half the uncooked sausage evenly over the dough and top with half the peppers and onions if desired. Roll lengthwise into a long log. Repeat the process with remaining ingredients. Wrap logs and place in freezer until very firm - about 1 hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 400 F. Cut each log into 24 slices; place on non-stick baking sheets and bake 15 minutes or until golden brown.


Note:

Logs may be prepared in advance and frozen until ready to bake. Thaw logs until just soft enough to slice and bake as directed.
