    Pigs in a blanket (aka mini crescent dogs) are always a favorite appetizer or snack when there are a group of people getting together.  This is what I like bringing whenever I know there are a bunch of kids coming.  It has happened that the adults have eaten all of these before the kids get to them!!

    What are Pigs in a Blanket?

    They are a really easy snack/appetizer made with little hot dogs (I buy Lil Smokies) wrapped in Crescent Roll dough. These mini crescent dogs are very popular with kids because they are an easy snack to grab and most kids love hot dogs!

    Ingredients

    package of Lil Smokies (small hot dogs)
    tube of Crescent Rolls
    ingredients for pigs in a blanket are lil Smokies and crescent rolls

    Directions

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees Faherneight
    Dry the lil Smokies with a paper towel. They tend to be in some liquid in the package.
    Unroll the Crescent Roll dough
    Cut long triangles
    Wrap the little weiners, starting with the wide side of the triange.

    Using your non-stick liner (Silpat of similar) is a good idea for these!

    Can you double the recipe?

    Yes! And you should. I usually do. And, I never bring any back home. Normally I serve them in a big warm glass bowl. But lately, I've put them on a tray so it's easier for people to grab a couple without touching the others. You can also put toothpicks in each so people can serve themselves that way. Makes them look more fancy too!

    A little tip. When you bring these to a gathering, be kind to the host and bring some ketchup and mustard too! Some kiddo's really like thier condiments with these. Other kids just like to grab a couple and are munching on them as they join their friends.
