How to Make Sugar Bacon Wrapped Smokies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15x10x1 inch baking pan with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  2. Wrap each sausage link with a half-slice of bacon, securing the end with a wooden toothpick.
  3. Place 1/2 cup of brown sugar in a large resealable plastic bag.
  4. Add bacon-wrapped sausages to the bag (a few at a time to avoid overcrowding).
  5. Seal the bag and gently shake to evenly coat the sausages with brown sugar.
  6. Place the coated sausages in the prepared baking pan.
  7. Repeat steps 4-6 with the remaining sausages.
  8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and browned and the internal temperature of the sausages reaches 160°F (71°C).
  9. Remove from oven and carefully remove toothpicks before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
