Jalapeno Popper Pigs In A Blanket

Put 2 pounds pigs' knuckles into a large saucepan with water to cover.

Recipe Summary Jalapeno Popper Pigs In A Blanket

This blends the best of two worlds. Jalapeno poppers and pigs in a blanket. They aren't the traditional small size appetizers, so they're perfect for a satisfying snack. These get double jalapeno flavor with jalapeno-smoked sausage. If you want an even fancier presentation, use puff pastry.

Ingredients | Pig Hocks And Sauerkraut

2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent roll dough

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

6 jalapeno peppers, halved and seeded

½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste

6 smoked jalapeno sausages, halved

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Unwrap crescent dough and separate into 12 triangles onto a clean work surface. Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons cream cheese into each jalapeno half and press a sausage half into the mixture. Place stuffed jalapenos on top of the crescent triangles and sprinkle with 1 to 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese. Wrap stuffed jalapeno with crescent dough.

Bake in the preheated oven until dough has puffed up and is lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

You will end up with leftover crescent dough. Just roll it up and bake as instructed on the package.
