Servings: 12
Calories: 227kcal
Ingredients
- 16 ounces (2 8-ounce) containers original crescent rolls
- 12 ounces package smoked cocktail sausages
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- Rosemary garnish
- Cherry tomatoes garnish
Instructions
- Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- Spread out the crescent rolls on the parchment paper. Pinch the seams of the dough together and press to seal them. Cut the dough into 2 ½ inch squares. Cut each square on the diagonal to create 2 equal triangles.
- Next, place 1 cocktail sausage on the corner of the triangle piece of dough you previously created. Roll the cocktail sausage in the dough until you reach the end.
- Arrange the dough-rolled cocktail sausages in a circular pattern to create the wreath. Feel free to stagger them or create your own design!
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk one egg. Using a pastry brush, coat the dough with a layer of egg wash. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
- Bake in the oven at 375°F for 20 minutes or until they start to turn a beautiful golden brown.
- Carefully remove from the oven and sporadically place the rosemary creating a wreath effect. Lastly, add the cherry tomatoes for additional garnish.
- Serve on your favorite holiday platter and enjoy!
Notes
Storage:
- To Store: Store leftovers in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
- Make sure your crescent-rolled cocktail smokies are slightly touching when you arrange them so that the wreath stays connected when you slide it onto your serving platter.
- I used about 30 cocktail sausages for this recipe. Each 12-ounce package has about 35 - 40 mini sausages.
- If crescent roll sheets are available at your local grocery, they would be great for this recipe!
- A pizza cutter works great for cutting the crescent rolls.
