📖 Recipe Card
Halloween Themed Appetizers: Mummy Dogs (+21 More Great Party Snacks & Treats!)
Ingredients
- 8 oz crescent rolls (1 8-ounce can of refrigerated crescent rolls)
- 2 ½ slices American cheese
- 10 standard hot dogs
- 20 candy eyes
- Condiments (ketchup, mustard, etc.)
(Note: 2x or 3x only changes the ingredient list)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- If using pre-scored crescent rolls, roll them out and tear at the perforation (making 4 rectangles). If using a sheet of crescent rolls, unroll it and cut it into 4 rectangles.
- With kitchen shears or a knife, cut each of the rectangles of dough into 10 thin strips. You should have 40 strips of dough.
- Slice the cheese into quarters (and the last half slice into two halves).
- Stack a slice of cheese on top of each hot dog. Then, wrap them up with the thin dough strips, crisscrossing to look like a wrapped mummy. The dough can be stretched slightly to cover the entire hotdog.
- Leave space between the dough bandages to add a face or eyes to your mummy, if desired. (*See note).
- Place the mummy hotdogs cheese-side-down on an ungreased baking sheet and spray the dough lightly with cooking spray.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 13-17 minutes, or until the dough is golden-brown. Remove from heat, add candy eyes, and serve with your favorite condiments.
Notes
- If candy eyes are not an option, make your faces with ketchup and/or mustard!
- You can make a mini-version by using Lil'smokies if desired.
- Add candy eyes after baking or they will melt in the oven!
- To store: Place leftover mummy dogs in a sealed airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or the freezer for up to 6 months.
- To reheat: No need to thaw frozen mummies. Simply bake at 350°F (175°C) until hot, usually 4-5 minutes for refrigerated mummies and 20-25 minutes from frozen.
