Ingredients Needed
- 1 tube Crescent Sheets Dough– you can use the regular crescent roll dough and press on the perforations to seal them, but the crescent sheet is much easier to use.
- Cocktail Wieners– you can use all beef or pork.
- Pre-Cooked Bacon– I use Oscar Mayer Fully Cooked Bacon. You can cook your own bacon, but you must let it cool some and you still need it to be pliable so it will wrap around the smokies. The packaged fully cooked bacon is easiest to use.
Serve With BBQ Ranch Sauce
These Pigs in a Blanket tastes great on their own, but even better dipped in an easy BBQ Ranch Dipping Sauce.
Make Ahead
These yummy bacon treats can be made and refrigerated until ready to bake. Cover them well with plastic wrap so that the crescent dough does not dry out.
Storage
Best eaten right away but can be refrigerated in an airtight container and reheated in a toaster oven.
Bacon Pigs in a Blanket Recipe Tips
A pizza cutter is really handy for cutting the dough quickly and easily, but you can use a knife.
If you are taking these to a potluck, an insulated carrier like this one is really useful for keeping them warm until you get there.
