Today marks a day near and dear to our hearts across America..... Yes, National Pigs In A Blanket Day. These little babies are mummies at Halloween, lady bugs at 3rd birthday parties, a staple at Super Bowl Parties and a real treat whenever they are made. Here at Chez Webb they are also the confirmed favorite food of our favorite teacher, Matt Coleman
This is the boy slaving |
{Who by the way is current reigning Teacher of the Quarter at our school}. So to celebrate this auspicious occasion.... the boy & I slaved away and made pigs in a blanket for the class.
So, what's our secret?
WHAT YOU NEED:
1 pkg little smokies
1 can Pillsbury extra thick crescent rolls
makes approximately 35 pigs :)
WHAT YOU DO:
Preheat oven to 350F
open the can of crescents and cut each triangle into 4 or 5 triangles; starting at a skinny point roll the wiener in a triangle. Place on parchment lined jelly roll pan and bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. They don't need to be spaced too much on the pan, Siamese pigs are GOOD LUCK!
CELEBRATE THE DAY!
They look yummy! :-)

I used to love these so much as a kid! We wouldn't even make them, we'd just buy the frozen ones and after 20 minutes in the oven we had yummy pigs in a blanket. I'm sure I'd love them now, too... :(
ReplyDeleteI used to love them as a kid too, but I haven't had them in a while!
DeleteThese are the best treats ever! I don't have a fottball party without them!
