It's totally valid to call these pigs in a blanket. It's cool that it means different things in different areas, but the way OP used the term isn't wrong.

Let’s ask ChatGPT! So I asked… first answer was: "Pigs in a blanket" is a popular dish that typically consists of small sausages or hot dogs wrapped in a pastry dough, such as croissant dough or puff pastry, and then baked until the dough is golden brown and the sausages are heated through. The dish can be served as an appetizer or snack and is often accompanied by dipping sauces, such as mustard or ketchup.” …so I asked again but now regering to the dish as “pig in blankets”, so plural… ChatGPT answers: "Pigs in blankets" is a similar dish to "pigs in a blanket," but it is more commonly used to refer to a dish in the United Kingdom, which typically consists of small sausages wrapped in bacon rather than pastry dough. In the UK, "pigs in blankets" are often served as a side dish to roast dinners or as a party snack, and they can be seasoned with herbs or spices to add flavor. However, in some regions or contexts, "pigs in blankets" can also refer to the pastry-wrapped sausages that are called "pigs in a blanket" in the US.”

So on the question what’s a “sausage roll”? It answered: “A sausage roll is a type of pastry snack that is popular in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and many other countries. It typically consists of a sheet of puff pastry wrapped around a seasoned sausage meat filling, then baked until golden brown and crispy. It can be served hot or cold and is often eaten as a quick and easy snack or as part of a meal. Sausage rolls are a popular food at parties, picnics, and other social events.” And on the question thereafter: how is it called in the US? It answered: “In the United States, a similar food item is known as a "pigs in a blanket." This typically consists of small cocktail sausages wrapped in a dough or pastry and baked until crispy. However, the filling and pastry may vary, and some regional variations exist.”
