Reviews
We had these tonight with sweet potato fries baked in the oven and sriracha dipping sauce. We loved this twist on the traditional Pigs in a Blanket! The heat and crunch of the jalapeno was delicious. I made my own dough in a bread maker using the dough setting, rolled it out thin and cut it into strips that were wrapped around the “pigs”. This was so much better than the canned crescent dough, I don’t ever think I’ll use that again. I baked them at 350, but it took an additional 10 minutes to get golden brown with my homemade dough. I brushed them with an egg wash and sprinkles poppy seeds on top before going into the oven. Yum!!
I have even made it again Everyone loved them
