Cut the jalapeños in half (vertically) and remove (discard) the seeds.

Chop the jalapeños into bite sizes.

In a medium size bowl: combine chopped jalapeño, cream cheese, shredded cheese, salt, pepper, onion and garlic; mix well.

Unroll the can of dough. Separate 8 triangles. Cut each triangle into 3 smaller narrow triangles.

Scoop out about 1 tsp jalapeños popper mixtures and place onto the long side of the crescent.

Add 1 mini cocktail on top.

Gently fold and roll the dough to the point end. Place them on a baking sheet. Continue with the rest.

In a small bowl: add 1 egg and water. Whip until well combined. Brush the egg wash over the crescents. Sprinkle with salt.

Air fry for 6-7 minutes or until the top becomes golden brown. Remove the pigs in a blanket from the basket. Continue with the rest. Make sure to coat the basket with cooking spray. Do not over crowd in the basket. May need to do 2-3 batches. 

Bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove the pigs in a blanket from the baking sheet. 

Serve & enjoy!
