Steps:
- Soak 6 wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes.
- Prepare a grill for indirect heat. (For a gas grill, turn one burner on each far side to medium heat and the middle burners to low; for a charcoal grill, bank the coals on one side of the grill.) A grill thermometer should read 325 to 350 degrees F.
- Tear off a long piece of foil and fold into thirds so it's about the size of a baking sheet. Spray the foil with cooking spray.
- Push the hot dogs onto the skewers so the hot dogs are flush with the top. Use a sharp paring knife to cut a spiral (4 or 5 rings total) along the hot dog, cutting all the way down to the skewer. Gently pull the hot dog down to open up the spiral.
- Unwrap the crescent dough. Cut it crosswise into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a snake 8 to 9 inches long. Press one snake into the cut spaces in each spiral, wrapping it as you go and tucking in the ends.
- Set the foil on the indirect (low) heat part of the grill and add the hot dogs, leaving some space between each. Grill, covered, until the bottoms of the dogs are golden and top of the dough is set, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the skewers and cook until the bottom is browned again, 5 to 6 minutes more. Flip once more to an unbrowned side and grill until the dough is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes more.
- Transfer the pigs in blankets to a platter and serve with ketchup and mustard.
SAVOURY CORN PIKELETS
These pikelets are delicious spread with cream cheese or pate. Eat them within 24 hours as they don't stay fresh long. If you don't have skimmed milk powder then use full cream powder. If you don't have milk powder at all then use 1 1/2cups ordinary milk and omit the powder and water.

Steps:
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl and beat well for about 3 minutes until batter is smooth.
- Heat a non stick fry pan and cook tablespoonfuls of mixture until they are bubbly and holey on the top surface. Carefully turn the pikelets over and cook the other side. If you don't have a non-stick fry pan then use a smidge of oil in a regular pan.

- Place 1/4 cup oil over medium-high heat with three kernels of corn. As soon as the corn pops, remove from heat, add 1/2 cup of unpopped corn and cover with a lid. Allow to set for 20-30 seconds for the kernels to come up close to popping temperature. Place back over medium-high heat and pop the corn shaking the pan occasionally.
- You need 8 cups of popped corn. Spend little time getting rid of un-popped kernels. The easiest way is to shake the container and moving the top layer to another pan.
- Prep a large pan and a wooden spoon or rubber spatula with PAM and transfer popcorn to the pan. This is the point to add nuts or candy if desired—about 1 cup and mix in well.
