Pig in a Blanket

Pig-in-a-Blanket is an appetizer that seems to make it onto every party menu. And for good reason - it's a classic app that everyone loves, it's easy to serve, tastes great in all it's original glory, but can also be tweaked to fit the taste you're looking for.

Ingredients

1 package Hillshire Farm Little Smokies cocktail links (about 48)
1 package Pepperidge Farm puff pastry sheets
1 egg white
Flour for dusting pastry

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Drain cocktail wieners on a paper towel. Roll out puff pastry dough on a floured cutting board and cut dough into long strips. The width of the strips should be equal to the length of a cocktail wiener. Wrap puff pastry around each wiener to just cover (seems meet). Brush each one with egg white.

Place wieners on parchment-covered cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for a 10 to 15 minutes, or until each pastry is puffed up and cooked through.

Serve with a bowl of your favorite mustard!

Serves

Makes about 48 pieces.
