From Nicole's Kitchen: Pigs in a Blanket

These are a great snack for any get-together- kids love to dip them! Serve them up with a condiment of your choice- ketchup, mustard, honey mustard- so many options! The lil sausages come in many different varieties as well. ENJOY!

1 pkg, lil sausages (about 40)
2 pkgs, rollout pizza dough
A dozen american cheese slices (any kind of cheese will do)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into strips wide enough to cover the sausages. You should get 20 strips per roll of dough. Tear off a piece of the slice of cheese and roll it up with the sausage. Try to make sure none of the cheese is hanging out of the dough- it will melt in the oven and make a mess. I like to pinch the ends of the dough shut over the sausage to prevent the cheese from melting everywhere.

Bake the "Pigs" for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the dough begins to brown. Check the bottoms, sometimes the bottoms will brown before the top and while you are waiting to see color on top, the bottoms will burn! I've had that happen, especially when using airbake cookie trays.

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce!
