I don’t like store-bought Sausage Rolls. My husband’s mother taught me how to make Sausage Rolls using the store-bought Sausage Mince, but I don’t like the Sausage Mince. I use good quality thick Gourmet Sausages for a shortcut. Using store-bough Frozen Butter Puff Pastry, these Sausage Rolls are super easy to make, and they taste …
