Title: Armadillo Balls

 Bite-sized balls of sausage and cheese flavored dough hiding a surprise slice of jalapeno pepper.






    1
    lb
    Cheddar cheese, grated

    1
    lb
    Good quality pork sausage (Bob Evans recommended)

    2
    C
    Baking mix (Like Bisquick®)

    1
    jar (10 oz)
    Jalapeno pepper slices

    1
    env
    Shake-n-Bake for pork (original)



  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

  • In a large bowl mix together the cheese and sausage until well blended. You really need to use your hands to do this well. Add the baking mix and mix well.

  • Remove about 50 slices of jalapeno pepper from the jar, shake off the liquid and set on paper towels to absorb excess liquid.

  • To form each Armadillo Ball, take a chunk of the dough mixture about the size of a whole walnut, maybe a little bigger. Pat it into a flat patty. Place a slice of jalapeno pepper in it. Fold up the edges around the pepper and seal well. Roll into a ball between your hands, pressing firmly.

  • After all the balls have been formed, pour the Shake-n-Bake into a small bowl. Roll the balls in it and place on a cookie sheet, about 1 inch apart.

  • Bake at 325 for 20 - 25 minutes, until cooked through and golden brown.

  • Drain on paper towels. These are good served hot, warm or room temperature.

    Yield: about 50 balls.


    To freeze: Freeze before baking by placing them on a cookie sheet and place  the cookie sheet in the freezer until the balls are solid. Then pour into freezer bags for storage. Bake them frozen (they may take an additional 5 minutes).
