Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent rolls
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

12 sprigs fresh rosemary, or to taste
¼ cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Unroll crescent roll dough on a clean work surface and brush generously with Dijon mustard. Cut each crescent roll triangle into 3 triangular pieces. Place a sausage at the thick end of one of the crescent roll strips and roll up, ending at the narrow end. Repeat until you have used all dough and made 24 pigs in a blanket. Reserve remaining sausages for another use.
  • Arrange pigs in a blanket in a circular shape on a round pizza pan, with rolls gently touching.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until dough is golden brown and puffed up, 15 to 18 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes before carefully transferring the wreath onto a round serving tray. If the sections come apart during the transfer, just recreate the circle shape as best as you can.
  • Arrange rosemary sprigs around the outside of the wreath and place ketchup in a small bowl in the middle.
