In case you missed it, here it a creepy, cute idea from Pillsbury. Bugs in a blanket, kids & adults would love these. If you make these for a party, make sure that you insert the legs, just before serving, that way, you won’t have limp bug legs!
INGREDIENTS:
1 can (11 oz) Pillsbury refrigerated breadsticks
24 cocktail-size smoked link sausages
3/4 cup shoestring potatoes

3/4 cup shoestring potatoes
*or I think you could also use pretzel sticks
Ketchup, barbecue sauce or mustard
Ketchup, barbecue sauce or mustard
DIRECTIONS:
1. Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough; separate at perforations into 12 breadsticks. With knife or kitchen scissors, cut each breadstick in half crosswise, making 24 pieces.
2. Wrap each piece of dough around center of each sausage, pinching to seal and leaving each end of sausage showing. Place seam side down and 1/2 inch apart on ungreased large cookie sheet.
3. Bake 11 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet; place on serving plate or tray. Cool 2 minutes.
4. Insert shoestring potatoes into baked dough to resemble legs and antennae. Decorate “bugs” with dots or stripes of ketchup.
