Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Dan-O’s Cajun
- 1 package of crescent dough sheet
- 1 packet of smoked sausages (e.g., Little Smokies)
- ½ cup baking soda
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 cup Velveeta cheese
- ¼ cup milk
Preparation Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the crescent dough sheet on a clean surface. Stretch and even it out to prepare for cutting. Lightly oil your hands and a knife to prevent sticking. Cut the dough into strips, suitable for wrapping around the sausages.
- Wrap the Sausages: Take a strip of dough and wrap it around each smoked sausage. Ensure they are fully covered.
- Boil the Sausages: In a pot of boiling water, add ½ cup of baking soda and reduce to a medium boil. Carefully drop in the wrapped sausages and cook until they float (approximately 30 seconds). Remove and set aside.
- Prepare the Egg Wash: In a bowl, crack one egg and whisk it well with a fork. Brush the egg mixture over the wrapped sausages and sprinkle with kosher salt.
- Place the wrapped sausages on a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Make the Dan-O’s Cajun Queso: Cut the Velveeta cheese into chunks and place it in a saucepan over low heat.
- Add ¼ cup of milk and stir until melted and smooth.
- Sprinkle generously with Dan-O’s Cajun.
- Once the pigs in a blanket are done baking, serve them warm with Dan-O’s Cajun queso in a bowl for dipping.
