Smokies in Blankets Leave a Comment / Snacks / By Amanda and Tim / January 2, 2020 January 18, 2020These were so loved. Turned out great!2CUPS all-purpose flour1TBSP sugar2TSP baking powder1/2TSP baking soda1/2TSP salt4TBSP unsalted crisco or butter, cold, cut into small pieces (I prefer crisco)1/2CUP grated jalapeno harvarti 3/4CUP buttermilk regular milk is fine18miniature hot dogs, Smokies or big hotdogs cut in 1/3rds.Preheat oven to 400ºF. Grease a large baking sheet or I use a silicone sheet. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl.Put the butter/margarine pieces into the dry ingredients until mixture is crumbly. Stir in cheese until evenly distributed.Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk/milk. Stir well into a nice ball. Sprinkle the dough with flour and then turn out onto a well floured counterWith floured hands, pat the dough, I take a floured rolling pin roll out. Roll, then fold in half, roll out, fold other way, roll again. I keep repeating this over and over flipping in half and rolling. It makes for a very flakey layered crust. I rolled out a large square. Cut in half then cut triangles out of each rectangular piece you have.One at a time, roll up the sausages in the triangles. Pinch the end piece in bottom and cook that side down. I do a yolk wash on them and add some white & black sesame seedsBake for 12 to 13 minutes, until golden brown. Serve with some mustard, ketchup & relishThis was one of the snacks I prepared for Christmas Eve. These freeze well.
