Ingredients:

  • 1 package (8 count) refrigerated crescent roll dough (226g)
  • 8 hot dogs (beef, pork, or vegetarian) (approximately 450g)
  • 1 large egg, beaten (approximately 50g)
  • Optional: Mustard, ketchup, or mayonnaise for dipping (as needed)
  • Optional: Poppy seeds for decorating (1 tsp)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate the triangles. Using a pizza cutter or knife, slice each triangle into long, thin strips (about ¼ inch wide).
  3. Wrap the strips of dough around each hot dog, leaving a small section uncovered at the top for the face. Crisscross the dough strips to create a mummy-like effect.
  4. Brush the wrapped hot dogs with the beaten egg. This gives them a golden brown color.
  5. Place the Mummy Dogs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the hot dogs are heated through.
  6. Once cooled slightly, add small dots of mustard, ketchup, or mayonnaise to create eyes. You can also use poppy seeds for a spookier look.
  7. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
