Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Add the Lil' Smokies to the saucepan, stirring well to coat them evenly in the honey garlic glaze. Let them cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
  4. Arrange the mini phyllo pastry cups on a baking sheet.
  5. Spoon a few sausages into each pastry cup and drizzle extra glaze over the top.
  6. Bake the filled pastry cups in your preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden and crispy.
  7. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
