Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust your work surface with the all-purpose flour. Roll out the puff pastry sheet to ensure it's about 1/8 inch thick.
Cut the puff pastry into 24 small strips, roughly 1 inch wide and 3 inches long.
Wrap each cocktail sausage with a strip of puff pastry, overlapping the ends slightly and pressing gently to seal.
Place the wrapped sausages seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash.
Brush the tops of the wrapped sausages with the egg wash to give them a golden, shiny finish after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces, such as honey mustard or ketchup.
