Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Italian sausage, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Crack one egg into the sausage mixture and mix thoroughly to bind everything together.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets if they are not pre-rolled. Cut each sheet in half lengthwise to create four long rectangles in total.
Divide the sausage mixture into four equal portions and roll each portion into a log slightly shorter than the length of the pastry.
Place one sausage log along the edge of each pastry rectangle. Roll the pastry tightly over the sausage, sealing the edge with a dab of water.
Trim any excess pastry and place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining egg and the tablespoon of milk to create an egg wash.
Brush the egg wash over the top of each roll for a golden, shiny finish.
Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 2-3 smaller pieces for individual sausage rolls. Space them apart on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the sausage is cooked through.
Allow the sausage rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
