This holiday season, we decided to share our favorite appetizers and snack for Christmas, New Year’s eve, and other fantastic holidays. This year we shared our favorite Potato Rosemary Focaccia, Puff Pastry Ham, Cheese and Sauerkraut Pie, Simple Charcuterie Board, and now this brand new Pigs in a Blankets made with store-bought puff pastry. This is a quick and easy recipe. Serve them with a delicious sauce, and you’re in it for a treat.

Delicious Mini Pigs in a blanket

These are the top reasons why we think you're going to make this recipe time and time again:

  • the puff pastry is crunchy and sprinkled with sesame seeds
  • this is a quick and easy snack perfect for any day of the year
  • make it for holidays, celebrations, picnics, birthday parties, or for a quick weeknight treat
  • feel free to store any leftovers in the fridge, then reheat before serving.

We have another delicious Pigs in a blanket recipe on the blog. Instead of using puff pastry, we used yeasted dough made from scratch.

If you don't have small, cocktail hot dogs at home, feel free to use a large sausage. Cut it into three small parts.
