Pigs in a Blanket Pretzels

1 can Refrigerated Biscuit dough
12 oz. Lit'l Smokies
Water
1/4 cup Baking Soda
Kosher Salt, for sprinkling
2 Tablespoons Butter
Tablespoons Flour
1 cup Milk
2 cup shredded Cheddar
Salt and Pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 425°. 

Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray.

Cut biscuits into quarters until you get 24 even pieces. Flatten out and wrap the dough around the Lit'l Smokies, you may not use the whole bag.

Meanwhile, in a large, shallow skillet, add 2 inches of water. Whisk in baking soda and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer, and in small batches, cook pigs until dough is puffy, 30 seconds.

Transfer to baking sheet using a slotted spoon and sprinkle with Kosher salt. Repeat process until all pigs are cooked.

Bake until deeply golden and shiny, 22 to 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, make cheese sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in flour and cook for about 1 minute. Stir in milk and bring to a simmer. Once it starts to thicken, turn off heat and whisk in cheese until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Serve dogs with cheese sauce.
