A quick and easy Halloween-themed snack featuring hot dogs wrapped in flaky crescent dough, baked to crispy perfection and served with a tangy honey mustard dip.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8-ounce) tube crescent roll dough
  • 8 regular-sized hot dogs or 16 mini cocktail sausages
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese, thin slices or shredded
  • Black sesame seeds or black peppercorns for eyes
  • Honey Mustard Dip:
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon mayonnaise (optional)
  • Optional seasonings: pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll crescent dough onto a clean surface. Press perforations to seal and cut into 1/4-inch wide strips.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, honey, and mayonnaise (if using). Chill in fridge.
  4. Place a slice or two of cheddar cheese over each hot dog. Wrap crescent dough strips loosely around each hot dog to mimic mummy bandages, leaving gaps for eyes.
  5. Place wrapped hot dogs on baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Press two black sesame seeds or peppercorns onto dough gaps for eyes.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until dough is golden brown and crispy. Rotate pan halfway through baking for even color.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with honey mustard dip.

Notes

Wrap dough loosely to avoid tearing and ensure even baking. Use room temperature dough for easier handling. Rotate pan halfway through baking for even color. Brush with egg wash for shiny finish if desired. Leftovers store well refrigerated for 2 days and reheat in oven to maintain crispiness. Can freeze wrapped mummies before baking.
