Ingredients
  

Pigs in a blanket

Egg Wash (optional)

  • 1 Egg yolk
  • 1 Tbsp Water

Instructions
 

  • Start by making the crescent roll dough. While your dough is resting, cook your hot dogs. I like to cook mine in a dry skillet until lightly brown.

ROLL AND CUT

  • Divide the dough into 2 or 3 portions to make for easier rolling. I divided mine into 3 portions. Roll out into a rectangle about 10 x 7 inches.

  • Using a pastry wheel cutter or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 6-7 strips.

  • Take a hotdog and wrap 1 strip of dough around it. Repeat for the remaining hotdogs.

  • If using mini hot dogs, cut your dough into 4 squares and cut each square into strips. Then wrap your mini hotdogs in each strip of dough.

BAKE

  • Place your wrapped hot dogs on a parchment lined baking sheet. Preheat oven to 375. Prepare egg wash by cracking 1 egg yolk into a small dish. Add 1 tablespoon of water. Mix well with a fork or whisk. Brush over crescent wrapped hot dogs.
    Bake at 375 for 20 minutes. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauces!
