The Wannabe Chef: Mummy Dogs

There are spider cupcakes, monster cookies, pumpkin cake balls and other cute ideas for sweet Halloween-themed treats. But since the little one will probably be getting lots of candy while trick-or-treating, I decided to try a dinner that got us into the Halloween spirit instead.

Mummy dogs will be on the menu this Halloween. They are super easy to make, which will help us have a fast meal before heading out for the night. You only need two ingredients: hot dogs and crescent rolls. Just cut the crescent dough into strips, wrap them around the hot dogs to resemble mummy shroud, bake and you’re done! I added a face made with dots of mustard for the full effect.

Have fun! This recipe is great to do with your kids.

Mummy Dogs

  • One pack hot dogs
  • One tube crescent dough, cut into strips
  • Mustard

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut the dough into strips, then wrap around hot dogs.

Place on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

Use a toothpick to add mustard eyes and a nose.
