The quickest way to spread the mustard and seasonings is with the crescent rolls intact. then the easiest way to cut them is with a pizza cutter. -
I made these yesterday for a birthday party. I used Digiorno shredded 3 cheese mix and garlic powder; I also used parchment paper (less cleanup). I noticed moisture around the bottoms of the rolls when they were done so I set them on a cookie rack to cool before packing them to take to work. These were great and everyone loved them though I did think they tasted a lot better hot out of the oven ... had to try one. Thank you for sharing. Fixed my moisture problem ... I rinsed them the night before and put them in a ziplock bag with some paper towels. Left them in the refrigerator until about 15 minutes before I needed them. -
Made these for our Super Bowl get together. They were gone on the first pass through the line. Yummy little appetizer bites! -
Made these for my son's 1st birthday party and they were a hit! Didn't have a single one left! :) I also lightened them up using reduced fat crescent rolls and turkey sausage little smokies -- no one noticed the difference! ;) My son gobbled them up too! -
These were so good and very easy to put together. I used the garlic butter crescent rolls, then left off the garlic salt and parmesan cheese. They were perfect!! Will be making these again and again.

I couldn't wait to make these for New Year's Eve! And they didn't disappoint =) I got 20 strips of crescent roll out of this by cutting the 10 strips in half one more time. Maybe my "Lil smokies" were smaller than the authors, but if I had left the recipe as is, this would have been too much dough for my mini-dogs. -
I brushed the pigs ' blankets with salted butter an sprinkled a Lil brown sugar on them because I love sweet and savory. ..especially with smoked sausage or bbq . Plus I do love some heat

I have made these for many years, but for breakfast. My grown kids insisted on having them every Christmas morning while growing up, my daughter started making them herself when she was old enough. Instead of the seasonings used in this recipe, we simply set out mustard for dipping. -
Simple and delicious. I also used garlic powder instead of garlic salt. -
These were good. I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt, the smokies are salty enough.
