Ingredients

For the Pigs in a Blanket

  • 1 package puff pastry, or one tube of crescent roll dough
  • 24 cocktail wieners, or use 8 hot dogs cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 1 large egg yolk, whisked

For the Dipping Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • ½ cup plain yogurt, or sour cream
  • cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Roll out the puff pastry and cut it into small triangles, the size of the cocktail wieners or 2-inch hot dog pieces.
  • Roll each cocktail wiener (or hot dog piece) into a triangle of the dough. Start rolling at the largest side of the triangle and end at the smallest side.
  • Place the wrapped wieners on a baking sheet, leaving an inch of space in between. Brush them with the whisked egg yolk, and add a sprinkle of sesame seeds and poppy seeds.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, make the dip by mixing the sriracha, mayonnaise, yogurt, and lime juice in a small bowl. Stir well to incorporate, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve.
