Pigs in a Blanket

1. Preheat Your Oven: Set the oven to 375 degrees F. Open the can and unroll the crescent rolls. Separate the dough along the perforated lines into 8 triangles. Pat the hot dogs dry with a paper towel if they’re moist (this helps the dough adhere better).

If using small cocktail weiners (aka lil smokies...

1. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each triangle of dough into 3 small triangles. Then, place the cocktail wiener on the thicker side of the triangle, and then roll the hot dog towards the tip of the triangle.

If using Extra-Large Hot Dogs (that you find at places like Costco)...

1. For a bite-sized portion, cut each extra-large hot dog into 3 equal segments (about 2 to 3 inches long each).If you want a typical hot dog size (just covered in dough), you can leave it whole—just be sure you have enough crescent dough to wrap around. For party-style appetizers, going with 2–3 segments per dog is most common.

For regular sized hot dogs...

1. Place a hot dog at the wide end of each crescent triangle. Roll the hot dog towards the tip of the triangle, tucking in any loose edges. May keep it whole or cut into halves or thirds.
2. Lightly brush the top of each rolled hot dog with beaten egg. Sprinkle with desired seasonings (ex: sea salt flakes, sesame seeds, everything bagel sea
3. Bake: Arrange the wrapped hot dogs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and the hot dogs are heated through. If you are using extra-large hot dogs, you may need to bake them for 15-19 minutes.
4. Let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve them with dipping sauces.
