When I used prepared pie crust for this recipe, it's even easier to form and fill these individual sausage cups. They are a savory and filling snack. Come Thanksgiving and Christmas, my family is especially delighted to see them. - Gail Watkins, South Bend, Indiana

I loved the idea of these sausage cups, but I found them to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time.

I thought these sausage cups were a bit bland. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

I'm not usually a fan of sausage cups, but these were really good. The sausage was juicy and flavorful, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I'll definitely be making these again.
