Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 hot dogs
  • 1 tablespoon water if using egg wash
  • Mustar d
  • Ketchu p
  • Edible candy eyes

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Pizza cutter or knife
  • Small bowl
  • Whisk
  • Oven
  • Pastry brush (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. Unroll crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. Cut the dough into thin strips, about ½ inch wide.
  3. Wrap each hot dog with the strips of dough, leaving a small gap near the top for the eyes. Do not wrap too tightly.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and water (optional).
  5. Brush the egg wash over the wrapped hot dogs (optional).
  6. Place the wrapped Mummy Hot Dogs on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the hot dogs are heated through.
  8. Let the Mummy Hot Dogs cool slightly before adding the eyes.
  9. Use a small dab of mustard or ketchup to attach edible candy eyes, or simply use mustard or ketchup as the eyes themselves.

Notes

For a healthier twist, try using chicken or turkey hot dogs and whole-wheat crescent roll dough. Get creative with fillings by adding cheese slices or a sprinkle of chili flakes before wrapping. Assembled mummy dogs can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours before baking. Leftover baked mummy dogs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
