Pigs in a blanket, franks in blanks, kilted sausages–these savory snacks go by many names, but one thing is certain: they are wonderful. What’s not to like about buttery bread wrapped around your favorite sausage.

We recently discovered this bite-sized sliced version, and it might become our new go-to. These poppable snacks, made with larger sausages such as kielbasa or your favorite smoked sausage, are ideal as a party appetizer or quick snack.This recipe has two variants. The first contains shredded cheddar cheese, while the second has a thick smear of cream cheese. We used jalapenos cream cheese spread, but chive or any other savory flavor would suffice.

The sheet of dough is tightly wrapped around the sausage and then cut into bite-sized portions. The final step is to brush a sweet dijon sauce on top, and they’re ready to bake.Bake these nibbles for slightly about 20 minutes, or until brown. They are best served hot, so bake them just before serving! These Kilted Sausage Bites are ideal for a game-day gathering, movie night, or backyard party. Give the recipe a try; we’re confident you’ll enjoy it!
