These crispy mummy-wrapped hot dogs are a quick, fun, and delicious Halloween snack made with crescent roll dough and hot dogs, ready in under 15 minutes. Perfect for last-minute parties or a spooky treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 standard-sized hot dogs
  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • Mustard (yellow or Dijon) for the eyes
  • Optional: Everything bagel seasoning or sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean cutting board. If using the perforated version, press the seams together gently with your fingers to seal them.
  3. Cut the dough into thin strips about 1/4-inch wide using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. You should get about 8-10 strips per sheet.
  4. Pat the hot dogs dry with a paper towel to help the dough stick.
  5. Take 2-3 strips of dough and wrap them around each hot dog, starting at one end and overlapping slightly as you go. Leave a small gap at the top for the ‘face’ (about 1/2 inch).
  6. Place the wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each one.
  7. Brush the tops of the dough strips with the melted butter using a pastry brush or your finger.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and crispy.
  9. Let the mummies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes.
  10. Using a toothpick or the tip of a knife, dab a tiny amount of mustard onto the exposed hot dog at the top of each mummy for eyes.
  11. Serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, use thin dough strips (about 1/4-inch wide) for maximum crispiness. Brush with melted butter for a golden-brown glow. Leave a gap at the top for the face. Serve immediately for the crispiest texture. Can be assembled ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours, or frozen unbaked for up to 2 months.
