Heat oven to 375°F.

Start with a package of crescent dough and cocktail size sausages.

Place sausage 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 ungreased cookie sheets. (You'll need 2 cookie sheets.)

In a small dish, mix the butter, Italian seasonings, and garlic powder. Brush mixture over the rolls and bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Arrange mini dogs in a circle on a serving tray with the ketchup in the middle.

We know you like those mini crescent dogs as much as the kids do. So here's how to make them into an awesome app for your next holiday party! You may make crescent-wrapped mini dogs for your kids, but who ends up actually eating them? YOU! Whenever I make "pigs in a blanket" for the kids at our get togethers, guess who's hands I'm slapping away as I pop them out of the oven? Not the kids. They know better. So why not just give in and transform one of our favorite kid-friendly foods into a festive, and dare I say elegant, appetizer? We're dressing them up with a seasoned butter glaze and arranging them into this Mini Crescent Dog Wreath complete with a vibrant red-bell-pepper bow. You could get creative with your dipping sauces, using barbecue or cranberry sauce, but I stuck with good ol' ketchup. To add some holiday green, place your dipping sauces on a bed of lettuce in the center. Enjoy the party!
