Chocolate Peanut Biscuit Sausage

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Biscuit Dough:

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) or according to the instructions on your biscuit dough packaging. If you’re using homemade dough, roll it out into a flat, rectangle shape on a clean surface.

2. Melt the Chocolate:

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and completely melted. Once melted, stir in the chopped peanuts, mixing them into the chocolate for a crunchy, flavorful base.

3. Assemble the Biscuit Sausage:

Roll out the biscuit dough on a lightly floured surface, making it large enough to work with—about 1/4 inch thick. Brush the dough with the melted butter and spread a thin layer of the chocolate-peanut mixture over the entire surface of the dough.

4. Shape the Sausage:

Once the dough is covered in the chocolate-peanut mixture, carefully roll it up like a jelly roll, starting from one edge and rolling tightly until you have a long log. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal in the chocolate and peanuts. Then, slice the roll into 1- to 2-inch pieces, like you would a log of cookie dough.

5. Bake the Sausage:

Place the individual biscuit pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving a little space between each one. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuit pieces are golden brown and fully cooked through. The chocolate should have melted into the dough, creating a gooey, delicious center.

6. Add the Finishing Touches:

Once the biscuit sausage pieces have baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. If you’d like to add an extra indulgent touch, drizzle with a simple chocolate ganache. To make the drizzle, melt the chocolate chips and milk (or cream) together in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the warm biscuit sausages.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

Once the chocolate drizzle is set, dust the biscuit sausages lightly with powdered sugar for an extra sweet touch. Serve warm and enjoy the combination of rich chocolate, crunchy peanuts, and flaky biscuit dough in each bite.
