3 cups biscuit mix

1 1/2 teaspoons Bolner’s Fiesta Brand Southwest Fajita Seasoning

1/4 teaspoon Bolner’s Fiesta Brand Garlic Powder

1/4 teaspoon Bolner’s Fiesta Brand Paprika

1 (16 oz.) roll Wampler’s Mild Sausage Roll

3/4 cup milk

12 oz. grated extra sharp cheddar cheese

1 (12 oz.) pkg. Wampler’s Farm Brats

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, stir together biscuit mix, fajita seasoning, garlic powder, and paprika. Add sausage and milk. Beat on low speed until combined. Beat in cheese just until evenly mixed. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions. Use hands to evenly shape each portion around a brat, leaving about 1/4-inch of brat showing on each end. Place mixture-wrapped brats 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, in a small microwave-safe bowl, stir sauce and chipotle hamburger seasoning together. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes until heated through, stirring every 30 seconds. For each serving, place a kolache on a plate and about 3 tablespoons of sauce in a small dish on the side of the plate. Garnish with green onions as desired. Serve immediately. Serves 6.
