Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Mini sausages
- 1 can (8 oz) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the can of refrigerated crescent roll dough and carefully separate the dough into 8 triangles along the perforated lines.
Cut each triangle into three smaller triangles. You should now have 24 small pieces of dough.
Place one mini sausage at the base of a dough triangle and roll it up tightly towards the pointed end to form a blanket around the sausage.
Repeat with the remaining sausages and dough pieces, and arrange them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Melt the butter in a small bowl and stir in the garlic powder. Brush this mixture lightly over each wrapped sausage.
If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let the pigs in a blanket cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces, such as mustard, ketchup, or ranch.
