Steps:
- Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes until evenly browned, breaking up into small pieces as it cooks. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate, leaving any rendered fat behind.
- Add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter melts, add the flour and whisk until light golden brown, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk until combined and whisk until the gravy thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Add the thyme, red pepper flakes, sage, salt, pepper, and sausage to the pan and stir until combined. Transfer the mixture to a glass measuring cup and let cool to room temperature.
- Carefully pour the cooled gravy into a silicone ice mold and freeze overnight.
- Make the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To the bowl of a food processor, add the flour, baking powder, butter, salt, cheddar cheese, and chives. Pulse several times until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- With the processor running, slowly pour in the heavy cream and pulse until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until no longer sticky. Roll the dough out to about ⅛ inch (½ cm) thick and cut out 8 4-inch (10 cm) circles with a floured biscuit cutter.
- Remove the frozen gravy from the mold and place 1 cube at the center of each biscuit. Bring the edges of the dough over the gravy and roll to seal. Save the leftover gravy cubes for another use.
- Place the stuffed biscuits on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle with more cheese.
- Bake the biscuits for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Enjoy!
