| Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange the sausage slices on a baking tray in a single layer. Bake in preheated oven until browned. Remove from oven and place sausages on a double thickness of paper towels; set aside to drain. Combine all remaining ingredients in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook until slightly thickened and hot, about 10 minutes, stirring often. Add the drained sausage, stirring to blend well; cook just until heated through. Transfer the mixture to a crock pot set on LOW to serve. Arrange toothpicks in a holder for eating the sausage. |
