2CUPS all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Grease a large baking sheet or I use a silicone sheet. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl.
Put the butter/margarine pieces into the dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly. Stir in cheese until evenly distributed.
Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk/milk. Stir well into a nice ball.
Sprinkle the dough with flour and then turn out onto a well floured counter
With floured hands, pat the dough, I take a floured rolling pin roll out. Roll, then fold in half, roll out, fold other way, roll again. I keep repeating this over and over flipping in half and rolling. It makes for a very flakey layered crust.
I rolled out a large square. Cut in half then cut triangles out of each rectangular piece you have.

One at a time, roll up the sausages in the triangles. Pinch the end piece in bottom and cook that side down. I do a yolk wash on them and add some white & black sesame seeds
