I’ve never made Mini-Crescent Dogs but I’ve eaten a bunch of them at playdates! Lol!! This is the perfect snack to serve when little ones are coming over to play and adults love them too!

Looking for an easy appetizer for the (big and little) football fans in your life? Look no further, because these “Piggies in a Blanket” always get a touchdown! I’m so serious when I say -there are NEVER any of these left! lol! Serve with ketchup, mustard, and/ or BBQ sauce…and most of all, a side of fun!
Open crescent rolls and press edges together to make a full rectangle.
Slice with a pizza cutter into smaller squares like so..
Place a piggie in the center of each rectangle and bring up the opposite sides, twist and pinch together. Place on a prepared baking sheet and bake in a 375 oven for 12-15 mins until golden brown.
Dig in!

I’ve never met a kid who didn’t like these! Thanks for the recipe.
I didn’t realize how easy and quick this looks to make. I can’t wait to try them myself. Thanks for sharing.
My family gobbles these up! Love ya, Nelle
I would absolutely love to make these for the little ones but have no idea what ‘Crescent Rolls’ are (in cans?!) – never heard of this here in South Africa. Maybe I could just use Puff Pastry?
Thank you for your awesome fb site.
