Spooky Hofmann BBQ Cocktail Franks

Hofmann Cocktail Franks are fully cooked already, so time varies by preference.

Ingredients

Directions

  • Put all contents into a crockpot or a covered pot on the stovetop.
  • Cook on low 2 hours or to your preference, stirring occasionally.

  • Serve right out of a crockpot, or for Halloween fun, place a metal bowl in a cauldron.

Hofmann Pigs in a Blanket

Ingredients

Directions

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll both cans of dough; separate into triangles. Cut each triangle lengthwise into 3 narrow triangles.
  • Place cocktail franks on shortest side of each triangle. Roll up each, starting at shortest side of triangle and rolling to opposite point; place point side down on 2 ungreased baking or cookie sheets.
  • Bake approx 15 minutes or until golden brown, rotating the position of baking/cookie sheet(s) partway through baking. Immediately remove from baking/cookie sheet. Serve warm by themselves or with condiments such as Hofmann German Style Mustard and ketchup.

Helpful tips: Work in small batches as refrigerated dough can get sticky and more difficult to work with if out at room temperature too long. Give each wrapped cocktail frank enough room to rise – don’t put them too close to each other on the cookie sheet(s). If making them in advance, cover them on the ungreased, flat baking/cookie sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.

For Halloween fun, add dot eyes to each piece using a toothpick and mustard, turning normal pigs in a blanket into Mummy Cocktails.
