What a great idea! We made these on Saturday for our "Movie Day" along with Deviled Eggs and Ham Roll ups. I sprinkled half of these with cheese and left the others bare. These are not only delicious but also cute! Wonderful dipped in mustard or BBQ sauce.

    these little guys are great! with Pillsbury's recipe creations sheets, it's even easier. but i also like to use the garlic butter flavored crescents too! i always saute my little smokies first and sometimes toss them in bbq sauce or mustard before rolling up in the dough. i also egg wash the dough and sprinkle with cracked black pepper before baking. great party food, especially if you make fun dipping sauces to go with them! this is definitely going into my super bowl menu! thanks!

    Great recipe! I made only a half-order of these, since I had used half of my little smokies in something else, but was looking for a recipe to use them up. I did end up putting the parmesan on a plate and just rolling them around in it, rather than sprinkling. If you do this, be careful not to get too much cheese on the underside as it will make it try to stick to the pan. Since I only made half-order, I did have half of my crescents left, so I ran with your idea and sprinkled them with garlic-herb seasoning and parmesan before rolling up. Then I sprinkled a little more garlic on top (can one have too much of that?). They were so good, I may never make plain crescents ever again. Thanks so much for posting!

    I make these for me 1 and a haf year old son. they are great for little fingers. I use beef lil smokies and they make a great fun way for him to get enough protien in his diet. Heck, I love them too. One tip: If the dough starts to stick to everything and get kind of droopy, stick it in the freezer for 45 seconds or so.
