Pigs in a Blanket

Pigs in a Blanket

These are excellent! They take a little more work than just popping open a can of crescent rolls but well worth it! My Husband who normally doesn't like the taste of Carbquik even enjoys these.

Ingredients:

• 1 3/4 cups Carbquik
• 1/3 cup half and half (I had to add about a 1/8 cup more. The mix was too dry otherwise.)
• 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
• 2 slices cheddar cheese, see directions
• 8 each hot dog

Directions: 

1. Heat oven to 425ºF. Grease cookie sheet. (I used an air bake pan that didn't need greased.)
2.  Mix carbquik, half and half and mustard until soft dough forms; mix 30 seconds. Turn dough onto surface dusted with carbquik; roll in carbquik to coat. Shape into ball; knead 10 times.
3. Cut each slice of cheese into 4 strips.
4. Roll dough into 13-inch circle; cut into 8 pie shaped wedges. Place about 1 teaspoon pickle relish and 1 cheese strip on each wedge about 1 inch from rounded edge. Top with hot dog. Roll up, beginning at rounded edge. ( I just rolled them out to about 1/4 inch thick. and cut out long triangles. I had left over dough that I mixed in shredded cheese and made cheddar biscuits with them)
5. Place crescents, with tips underneath, on cookie sheet.
6. Bake about 12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with additional pickle relish and mustard.

For 1 Serving (This is calculated to the best of my ability as I had to factor in Carbquik which was not in the database that I used. )
