Directions
1.
Line a 15x10x1-inch 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 wood toothpick.
3.
Place brown sugar in a large plastic storage bag. Add several bacon-wrapped sausages at a time and seal. Shake bag gently to coat sausages with brown sugar; place in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining bacon-wrapped sausages.
4.
Bake in a 350 degree F oven about 30 minutes, or until the bacon is browned. Serve immediately. Makes about 45 smokies.

Make-ahead tip
