💡 Tips for the Best Pigs in a Blanket Breakfast

• Pre-cook raw sausage links slightly before wrapping for faster, even cooking.
• Don’t overfill with cheese — a little goes a long way and prevents leaks.
• Use puff pastry for an extra-flaky texture.
• Make ahead: assemble, refrigerate, and bake just before serving.
