How to Make Sausage Rolls Cheese Pufs

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and butter. Cut the butter into small pieces and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for a few seconds. Form it into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  5. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thickness.
  6. Cut the dough into 3-inch squares or circles.
  7. Place a spoonful of your desired filling (see filling suggestions below) in the center of each square.
  8. Fold the dough over the filling to form a triangle or roll it up into a sausage shape.
  9. Place the assembled puffs onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  10. Brush the tops with egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water).
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
