Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (8 oz or 226 g) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 standard-sized hot dogs (about 8 oz or 227 g total)
- Yellow mustard for the eyes
- Optional: cheese slices cut into thin strips for wrapping inside the dough
- Cooking spray or butter to grease the baking sheet
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles along the perforations. Slice each triangle into thin strips about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) wide using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
- Wrap each hot dog with the dough strips, leaving tiny gaps between strips to mimic mummy bandages. If using cheese, tuck thin strips inside before wrapping.
- Place the wrapped hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until the dough is golden and crispy. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Remove from oven and let cool for about 3 minutes.
- Use a toothpick or squeeze bottle to dot two mustard eyes on each mummy’s head.
- Serve warm, fresh from the oven.
Notes
If dough feels too sticky, chill for 10 minutes before slicing. Leave small gaps between dough strips to allow steam to escape for crispier texture. Add mustard eyes after baking to keep them sharp and flavorful. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. For reheating, use a toaster oven or regular oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
