Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 15" x 10" baking pan with foil; lightly coat with cooking spray. Set aside.

Wrap each sausage link with a bacon piece, overlapping the bacon piece at the end. Press the end of the bacon piece to seal or secure it with a wooden toothpick.

Place brown sugar in a large plastic storage bag. Add several bacon-wrapped sausages to the bag and seal. Shake bag gently to coat sausages with brown sugar; place sausages in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining bacon-wrapped sausages and brown sugar.

Bake about 30 minutes or until the bacon is browned. Serve immediately.

MAKE AHEAD TIP:
Prepare as directed through step 3. Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. To serve, uncover and bake as directed in step 4.
