Iowa Party Bites

Classic Ingredients You’ll Need

(Makes 24–32 bites)

• 2 (12 oz) packages Lil’ Smokies (or any small smoked sausage links)
• 2 (8 oz) tubes refrigerated crescent roll dough
• ½ cup brown sugar, packed
• ½ cup regular or sugar-free maple syrup
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard or yellow mustard
• Optional: ½ tsp smoked paprika or hot sauce for a kick

 Pro Tips:

• Don’t skip the mustard—it cuts sweetness and adds depth.
• Use real maple syrup if possible—imitation works, but real has richer flavor.
• Pat sausages dry before wrapping for better browning.
