These crispy mini hot dog pigs in a blanket feature a buttery, flaky crescent dough wrapped around juicy mini hot dogs, paired with a tangy and sweet homemade honey mustard dip. Perfect for quick snacks, parties, or game day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 mini hot dogs (cocktail-sized)
  • 2 (8-ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Sesame seeds for sprinkling (optional)
  • Honey Mustard Dip:
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Unroll crescent dough and press perforations to seal. Cut each triangle into smaller triangles about 2 inches wide at the base.
  3. Mix garlic powder and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Lightly sprinkle over dough triangles.
  4. Place one mini hot dog at the wide end of each dough triangle and roll up toward the point, tucking edges to seal. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  5. Brush each wrapped hot dog generously with melted butter. Sprinkle sesame seeds if desired.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until dough is puffed and golden brown. Check after 10 minutes to avoid burning.
  7. While baking, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise, and apple cider vinegar until smooth to make the honey mustard dip.
  8. Let pigs in a blanket rest for 3-5 minutes after baking before serving with honey mustard dip.

Notes

Use room temperature dough for easier handling and better puffing. Seal edges well and place seam-side down to prevent unrolling. Brush with melted butter for crispiness. Avoid overbaking to prevent burning. Refrigerate assembled pigs in a blanket up to 4 hours before baking, adding a few extra minutes to baking time if cold. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days; reheat in oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness. Avoid microwaving to prevent soggy dough.
