Dees Pig In The Blanket Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cut each hot dog into 4 even pieces. Set aside. Place the eight triangle-shaped portions of dough on a lightly floured work surface.
• One at a time, stretch or roll each triangle out slightly, making it into a larger triangle. Cut each piece of dough into 4 long, narrow triangles. Beginning at the base of each of these triangles, roll one hot dog piece up in each until the point of the triangle wraps around the center. Place your blanketed pigs on a large, ungreased baking sheet.
• Repeat with remaining ingredients, so that you have 32 pigs in a blanket. Be sure to evenly space them, as the dough will expand while baking.
• Place sheet in the oven and cook until dough appears slightly browned and crispy, about 12 minutes.
• Serve with mustard for dipping, if using. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Divide sausage, forming 30 to 36 "Pigs".
• (About half the length of a hot dog) Do not roll in hands, form carefully with finger tips or fork.
• Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in margarine as for pie dough.
• Mix in milk, form into smooth ball.
• Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness, cut into strips about 3 1/2 inches wide. Wrap "pig" loosely in dough, overlapping on the bottom.
• Do not pinch ends shut. Prick top of each "pig" with a fork.
• Place on ungreased cookie sheets, bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees, then 15 minutes at 350 degrees until brown.
• May be frozen up to 4 months.
