The idea for these pigs in a blanket plus cream cheese came from the hot dog stand that is on "The Strip" in Stillwater. "The Strip" is Washington Street in good ol' Stillwater right next to campus where all of the bars are. The couple that owns the hot dog stand knows what drunk people like: hot dogs. These people for real put cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chili, relish, and I'm pretty sure there is a hot dog somewhere on that bun too. It's amazing.
Movie night comes around and the fiancé and the roommate want hot dogs. Naturally I don't have buns, but I do have a can of crescent roll dough and hot dogs along with cream cheese and some string cheese. Just go with me on this one. 15 minutes later we are chowing down on a remake of a Stillwater staple. Creamy pigs in a blanket.
Ingredients:
4 hot dogs, cut in half
1 can of crescent roll dough (makes 8 crescent rolls)
Cream cheese (or string cheese)
Directions:
 |
Place rolled out dough onto a baking sheet and put the halved hot
dogs at the wide end of the dough. Cream cheese is placed in the middle.
Roll the dough starting from the wide hot dog end and making sure
the dough covers most of the hot dog and cream cheese.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or what the crescent roll packaging
instructions are.
And ta-dah! You have made yourself some delicious snacks :)
The cream cheese will not be really melty so no worries about runny cream cheese! (The string cheese does not melt very much either!) Enjoy!
