Mummy Hot Dogs With Spider Web Sauce - Crescent dough wrapped around a hot dog like a mummy and baked, then garnished with candy eyes and served with a bowl of ketchup with a yellow mustard 'spider web' drawn on top.

MUMMY HOT DOGS WITH SPIDER WEB SAUCE


Description

These adorable Mummy Hot Dogs With Spider Web Sauce are a great way to celebrate Halloween and feed the kids before trick or treating or starting the Halloween party at home!


Ingredients

Scale

For the hot dogs:

  • 1 can (8-ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough sheet or regular crescent roll dough (with perforations)
  • 2 1/2 slices extra sharp cheddar cheese
  • 10 bun sized all-beef hot dogs (I used Hebrew National)
  • 20 candy eyes

For the spider web sauce:

  • 1 cup ketchup
  • ¼ cup yellow mustard

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.  Line a baking pan with parchment paper or a Silpat mat.  Set aside.

Remove the crescent dough from the tube and unroll the dough.   If you are using crescent rolls, unroll them into a sheet and press the perforations together to “seal” them.

Using a pizza cutter, cut 20 thin strips of dough.

Next, cut the 20 strips in half so that you have 40 strips of dough.

Again, using the pizza cutter, cut each slice of cheese into 4 strips. Cut the half slice in half. You should end up with 10 slices of cheese.

Line one side of each hot dog with slices of cheese.

Wrap 4 strips of dough around each hot dog and cheese slice to look like ‘mummy bandages.’  It is okay to see bits of the hot dog through the ‘bandages.’ Be sure to leave a space near the top to make a ‘face.’

Place the hot dog on the prepared baking sheet and repeat the process with the other hot dogs, cheese, and dough strips.

I like to press the wrapped strips together and slightly flattened on the back of each ‘mummy’ to hold the cheese in place as it melts while cooking.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and the hot dogs are hot.

Remove from the oven.

Use a smear of ketchup to attach two candy eyes to the ‘face’ of the mummy.  Set aside to cool for a minute or two.

Meanwhile, make the spider web sauce.

Pour the ketchup into a small serving bowl.

Squeeze concentric circles around the top of the ketchup bowl.  Use a toothpick or the tip of a knife to draw lines through the mustard circles towards the center of the bowl, creating a spider web effect.

Serve the hot dogs with the spider web ketchup for dipping.
