Mummy Hot Dogs
These spooky-cute mummy hot dogs are the ultimate Halloween crowd-pleaser — flaky crescent dough wrapped around hot dogs with mustard eyes. Kids love them, adults eat three, and they only take 20 minutes to make.
Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- pizza cutter or knife
- Toothpick (for eyes)
Ingredients
- 8 hot dogs (regular size or cocktail weiners for minis)
- 1 can crescent roll dough (refrigerated)
- to dot mustard or ketchup (for eyes)
- as needed cooking spray
- optional cheese slices (cut into thin strips)
- optional everything bagel seasoning
- optional candy eyes
- optional sesame or poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Open crescent roll tube and separate into triangles.
- Cut each triangle into ¼ inch wide strips using a pizza cutter or knife. Each triangle should yield about 4–6 strips.
- Wrap hot dogs with dough strips, leaving a small gap for the face. Overlap and angle strips for a mummy look. Tuck ends underneath.
- Place wrapped dogs on baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden brown and puffy.
- Let cool slightly. Use a toothpick to dot on mustard or ketchup eyes in the exposed face area. Add candy eyes if using.
- Serve warm with ketchup or mustard on the side. Great for Halloween parties, school snacks, or spooky movie nights.
Notes
Wrap loosely and leave a face gap for the 'mummy' look. Tuck dough ends underneath to avoid unraveling. Candy eyes are optional, but fun. Can be assembled a few hours ahead and baked fresh.
