Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.

Wrap each sausage piece in half a bacon strip; secure with a toothpick.

Toss the wrapped bites in brown sugar and paprika until coated.

Arrange on the sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and caramelized.

Let rest 5 minutes before serving so the sugar sets.
