Sausage Stars

For our holiday lunch this year, my friend Lisa made the most amazing appetizers....our friend Tracy didn't even have to take a bite before she was asking for the recipe!  They were by far on of the best appetizers I have ever had, homemade or ordered in a restaurant!  I will be making these a TON as I feel certain no matter where I go they will be devoured!

1 small can black olives, sliced (optional)

1 tsp. ground red pepper (or to taste)
