These Hatch Chile Pigs in a Blanket are the most requested recipe at every gathering! Roasted Hatch Green Chile, a creamy cheese filling, and mini sausages wrapped in buttery crescent rolls — pure comfort food that disappears fast.
This is the recipe I am asked to make the most often. No matter the event, my family and friends request these Hatch Chile Pigs in a Blanket. My gluten-free friends have even started asking me to make them in a muffin tin, so they can have all the deliciousness without the bread.
It started out as just an experiment. We began by adding a little chile, but it needed something else. We tried a little cheese, but that still didn't quite hit the spot. Adding the cream cheese mix was just perfect! The combination of Roasted Hatch Green Chile, creamy cheddar and cream cheese filling, and those little smokie sausages all wrapped up in buttery crescent rolls is pure magic. We use our own roasted chile and a touch of Hatch Green Chile Powder in the cream cheese for an extra layer of flavor. Once you start making these, no one will ask for anything else. They're the kind of appetizer that disappears in minutes and has people asking for seconds before the first batch is even done baking.
