Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb smoked sausage cut into coins
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Stir in the brown sugar and cinnamon until it dissolves into a glaze.
  3. Add the sausage coins and toss to coat.
  4. Simmer 12 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until sticky and caramelized.
  5. Serve warm with toothpicks.

Notes

Watch the heat so the sugar caramelizes but doesn't scorch.
