Ingredients
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls or homemade crescent roll dough
- 2 1/2 slices American cheese quartered (optional)
- 10 large hot dogs
- cooking spray
- mustard or ketchup for garnish
Instructions
- If using store-bought crescent roll dough, unroll the dough sheet. Press together at the perforations to seal it into one large rectangle.
- Cut the rectangle into ten ‘bandages’. Stretch the bandages a bit to elongate them.
- Wrap one bandage around one hot dog and 1 quarter of cheese. Repeat for each hot dog.
- About 1/2 inch from one end of each hot dog, separate the ‘bandages’ so that the hot dog shows through for it’s ‘face.’ On an ungreased baking sheet, place wrapped hot dogs (cheese side down).
- Spray the dough lightly with cooking spray. Bake at 375 for 13 to 17 minutes or until the dough is light golden brown and the hot dogs are hot.
- With mustard, draw features on the ‘face.’
Notes
- It's ok, and even preferred, if the bandages are slightly inconsistent and messy. It will look more like a mummy that way.
- Don't skip spraying the mummy frankfurters with cooking spray. The cooking spray helps the dough turn golden.
- Serve these with ketchup, mustard, cheese, or chili for dipping.
