This blends the best of two worlds. Jalapeno poppers and pigs in a blanket. They aren't the traditional small size appetizers, so they're perfect for a satisfying snack. These get double jalapeno flavor with jalapeno-smoked sausage. If you want an even fancier presentation, use puff pastry.

Provided by Booper-2

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup fresh or canned jalapenos, diced
24 cocktail sausages (sometimes called lil' smokies)
1 (8 ounce) package Pillsbury refrigerated crescent roll dough

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray a cooking sheet lightly with cooking spray. In a food processor, blend the cream cheese and jalapenos until smooth. If you don't have a food processor just dice the jalapenos as fine as you can and blend. Slightly press the crescent roll with your hand to flatten and spread about 2 teaspoons of cream cheese mixture on the roll. Add your cocktail sausage on top of the cream cheese and roll up. Place on the cooking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or golden brown.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose fresh, ripe jalapeños, a creamy and flavorful cheese, and a flaky puff pastry.
Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Make sure there is enough space between the pigs in a blanket so that they can cook evenly.
Bake the pigs in a blanket until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
Serve the pigs in a blanket hot with your favorite dipping sauce. A creamy ranch dressing or a tangy barbecue sauce are both great options.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno popper pigs in a blanket are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. They are sure to be a hit with your guests, and they're also a great way to use up leftover jalapeños. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive appetizer, give these jalapeno popper pigs in a blanket a try. You won't be disappointed!
