# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 pound thin bacon, sliced into thirds
02 -
1 (16 oz) pack cocktail sausages
03 -
Fresh black pepper, as needed
04 -
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed tightly
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven on to 350°F and spray a pan with cooking oil, or use foil as an alternative to keep cleaning easy.
02 -
Dry the sausages briefly with a paper towel, then wrap each one with a piece of bacon. Use toothpicks to hold them in place.
03 -
Pour brown sugar into a large plastic bag that seals. Toss in a few bacon-wrapped sausages and shake them around to coat evenly. Do this for all sausages, then arrange everything on the baking pan.
04 -
Lightly sprinkle the bacon sausages with freshly ground black pepper if you'd like.
05 -
Place your sausages in the heated oven and bake for around 30-35 minutes, until the bacon is browned. If you'd prefer extra crispy bacon, broil briefly at the end.
06 -
Move the sausages to a serving platter and enjoy them while hot.
# Notes:
01 -
Cleaning up is easier if you use cooking spray or foil.
02 -
For added heat, mix a bit of cayenne pepper into the sugar before shaking.
