Transform classic ingredients into a creepy appetizer perfect for Halloween. Puff pastry is wrapped around sweet Italian sausage, then baked until golden and glazed with a vibrant cherry beet sauce. The result is a savory finger food that looks disturbingly realistic yet tastes amazing.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Set your oven to 400°F to preheat.
  2. Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface, then slice each sheet lengthwise into two long strips.
  3. Use kitchen scissors or a knife to peel off the sausage casings.
  4. Position a sausage along one long edge of a pastry strip, then roll it up snugly, pinching the ends shut with your fingers to seal. Do the same with the other three pastry strips and sausages.
  5. Gently stretch each rolled pastry a bit to make it longer, letting gravity help you elongate it as you hold it up.
  6. Arrange the sausage rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, curling them to resemble intestines.
  7. Whisk together the egg and water, then brush the mixture over the tops of the “intestines.”
  8. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until the pastry turns golden brown.
  9. Allow to cool, then coat with cherry beet sauce by brushing or drizzling. Serve.
