Print Recipe

A quick and fun Halloween snack featuring hot dogs wrapped in buttery crescent roll dough with mustard eyes, perfect for parties or last-minute cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (8 oz/227 g) crescent roll dough (store-bought refrigerated, e.g., Pillsbury)
  • 8 regular-sized hot dogs (beef, chicken, or plant-based)
  • Yellow mustard (for decorating the eyes)
  • Optional: cheese slices (cut into thin strips for extra gooeyness)
  • Cooking spray or butter (to grease the baking sheet)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease your baking sheet lightly with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough onto a clean surface. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into thin strips about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) wide.
  3. Wrap each hot dog by spiraling the dough strips around it, leaving a small gap near the top to place the ‘eyes.’ If using cheese, layer a strip underneath the dough.
  4. Place the wrapped hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately dot two small mustard ‘eyes’ near the exposed end of each mummy using a toothpick or the tip of a spoon.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overwrap the dough strips to allow puffing and a classic mummy look. Use cold dough for easier handling. Bake on the middle rack for even cooking. Add mustard eyes after baking to prevent burning. Check at 12 minutes to avoid over-browning. Dough tears can be overlapped and pressed gently to seal. Refrigerate assembled mummies up to 24 hours before baking if needed.
