Easy and tasty. Didn't really measure my onion or cheese, just eyeballed it. Made my own cheese sauce using cheez whiz, parm, cheddar, and herb and garlic cream cheese melted together with some cream. I think I'll try adding canned tomatoes to the leftovers for a topping on pasta. Might also add some chili powder or cayenne for a bit of kick next time. Thanks for a great new idea for sausage!

Everyone loved this appetizer! I think that they are my husband's favorite! I think to use pumpernickel bread, cut about 1 1/2 circle (using a cookie cutter or a glass) and toast them for the base instead of the cocktail rye. I just like the look and taste better! Thanks for a great recipe!

I made these using hot Italian sausage, green onions and shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese. I used a marbled rye/pumpernickel that I cut into rounds with a biscuit cutter. Toasted my bread under the broiler on both sides and topped with the sausage mixture. Added a bit more cheese and popped them back under the broiler to melt a bit. Very good and a little spicy from the hot sausage I used. I preferred using real cheese vs. the processed sauce, which I never buy.

Very rich, but tasty. Grocery didn't have the small pieces of cocktail rye bread, but did have unsliced pumpernickel buns, which I cut up into 24 slices.

I make these but my recipe calls for Jimmy Dean regular or hot sausage, 1# velveeta and crushed red pepper. My version is loved by all and most love it w/fritos. These are so good and thank you for sharing your recipe.

I love these things at parties and keep trying to find a recipe that I like to make them myself. I can't seem to find the right recipe. Maybe it's my choice of cheese? When I read "process cheese sauce" I read that as "melt Velveeta". Somehow, these always taste like sausage and Velveeta, not a blended flavor that tastes good. Also, as the Velveeta cools, these turn hard as a rock and have an unpleasant texture. I will keep looking.
