Tips:

To quickly thaw frozen puff pastry, place it in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated 200°F oven for 5-10 minutes, or until thawed but still cold to the touch.
Use a sharp knife to cut the puff pastry dough, as a dull knife will tear the dough and make it difficult to work with.
To prevent the puff pastry from sticking to the baking sheet, line the sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Be sure to prick the puff pastry with a fork before baking to allow steam to escape and prevent the pastry from puffing up too much.
For a golden brown and flaky crust, brush the puff pastry with an egg wash before baking.
For a more flavorful filling, brown the sausage in a skillet with some chopped onion and garlic before adding it to the puff pastry.
You can also add other ingredients to the filling, such as chopped bell peppers, mushrooms, or cheese.
Serve the cheesy sausage cocktail squares warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
