How to Make Mummy Hot Dogs for Halloween

This is a fun way to celebrate the Halloween Season. My family makes these "Mummy Dogs" every year for Halloween.

My kids look forward to this annual dinner event, we have fun making these and everyone enjoys eating them.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 8 Hot Dogs
• 1 can (8 oz)refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
• Mustard
• Toothpicks

   Open your can of Crescent Rolls. Unroll them and cut them on the perforated edge. Next, cut them into thin strips.

   For you first strip, place it around the top of the Hot Dog.

   Using the cut Crescent strips, continue wrapping, around the Hot Dog. 1 triangle of Crescent Rolls is enough for one Hot Dog.

   Continue wrapping the Crescent strips around the hot dog, there is no specific science to this. Although I find pulling and stretching the dough works best. It doesn't matter if the Crescent strips break while you're pulling them. It's dough, it will stick regardless and plus it adds to the "Mummy" look.

   Make sure you save enough of the strips of Crescent Roll to wrap around the whole hot dog. When your hot dog is all wrapped, place on a cookie sheet. Continue steps for all the hot dogs you are making. Bake in oven at 375 for 12 to 15 minutes or until Lightly Golden Brown.

   After they come out of the oven, using Mustard and a Toothpick poke your Toothpick dipped in Mustard into the Hot Dog for your Hot Dog Mummy's eyes.

   Your Mummy Hot Dogs are ready to be served. Enjoy & Happy Halloween!
