Cheese Recipe 5: Cheesy Pigs in a Blanket Appetizer

This recipe will make enough to serve about 6-8 people.


Ingredients:

8 slices of Colby Jack Cheese or 1 cup shredded


8 high quality wieners


1 eight ounce can of refrigerated crescent rolls

Method:

Get the oven preheated to 375 degrees before getting all the ingredients put together. Cut a pocket, length wise in each wiener to within about ½ inch of the ends. Fill each of these pockets with some of the cheese, divided equally. Get the crescent dough out onto a lightly floured workspace. Pull dough apart into eight triangles. Wrap one triangle around each dog filled with cheese. Brush the ends to seal with a bit of beaten egg, or a bit of water, to seal. Place on a greased cookie sheet, cheese side up. Bake for approximately 12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with ketchup, mustard or condiments of choice.
