  2. Roll out pastry on a lightly floured work surface and cut into 12 rectangles that are approximately the same length as the sausage.  Place a piece of sausage in the center of the dough and place a cheese stick on top of the sausage. Roll the pastry around the sausage and cheese and press to seal the edges.  Repeat with remaining sausage, cheese and pastry, and place the rolls, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet.
