    This easy and delicious appetizer is a true classic.  Delicious cocktail sausages wrapped in flaky crescent rolls are always a crowd-pleasing snack or appetizer!

    It’s the simple things… pigs in a blanket are so much fun to make and are ready in under 30 minutes.  These bite-size appetizers come together quickly and easily using refrigerated crescent rolls and cocktail sausages.  They’ve always been a staple on game day and during holiday gatherings.

    Raise your hand if you grew up on these, too!  Pigs in a blanket bring me back to my childhood and there are so many variations on how to make them.  I probably had them as an after-school snack at least a few times a month!

    I like to brush my crescent rolls with spicy mustard before rolling them up and baking.  And then there’s ketchup.  I LOVE dipping pigs in a blanket in lots and lots of ketchup!

    Each crescent roll will need to be sliced in half vertically into two small triangles.  I’ve also made these with hot dogs that I cut into three even pieces.

    This no-fuss, bite-size appetizer is always a crowd-pleaser.  Enjoy!
