Pigs in a blanket have been my happy bite all my life. In my family these flaky, doughy, and salty treats show up every holiday. Also, they are crazy easy to make. I crack during the day (Chiropractor) and chop at night! So when I am having people over, a make ahead treat is totally needed.

This recipe has such special meaning for me. As a child, my mom would make pigs in a blanket every holiday. Every single time, I would get in trouble for eating them before the guests arrived. When I got married, my only request was to have a whole table filled with these savory appetizers. As you can see, my obsession continues.
