Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- 8 to 10 standard beef or turkey hot dogs
- 1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
- Yellow mustard (for eyes)
- Sesame seeds (for pupils)
- Cooking spray (for baking sheet)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and press perforated seams together to form a single rectangle. Let sit for 5 minutes to warm slightly.
- Tear the dough into strips approximately 1 to 1.5 inches wide.
- Wrap each hot dog with the dough strips, overlapping slightly and leaving the ends exposed for the face.
- Place a small dot of yellow mustard on the exposed dough for eyes and press a sesame seed onto each dot.
- Brush the dough strips lightly with the egg wash.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the dough is golden brown and puffy.
- Cool for 2-3 minutes before serving warm.
Notes
Ensure dough is not too cold to prevent tearing. Do not overwrap the hot dogs to allow room for expansion. For cheese-stuffed versions, place a square of cheddar or pepper jack cheese on the hot dog before wrapping. Can be frozen uncooked and baked from frozen with extra time.
