Kids love this one. My mom made it for me as did her mom. If making for a small child, cut the hot dogs into fourths length wise. The cheese is always optional.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your pigs in a blanket will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful sausages and puff pastry dough.
  • Season your sausages well. Don't be afraid to add some herbs, spices, or other flavorings to your sausages before wrapping them in dough. This will help to give them a more complex flavor.
  • Use the right amount of dough. You don't want to use too much dough, or your pigs in a blanket will be doughy. But you also don't want to use too little dough, or they will be dry. A good rule of thumb is to use about 1/2 cup of dough for each sausage.
  • Bake your pigs in a blanket until they are golden brown. The baking time will vary depending on the type of dough you are using, so be sure to check the package directions. But in general, you want to bake your pigs in a blanket for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve your pigs in a blanket hot and fresh. They are best enjoyed straight out of the oven, when the dough is still crispy and the sausages are juicy.

Conclusion:

Pigs in a blanket are a classic party food that is always a hit. They are easy to make, delicious, and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a fun and easy appetizer, give pigs in a blanket a try. You won't be disappointed!
