Steps to Make Mummy Dogs
Making the spooky Mummy Dogs was easy with these simple steps.
- First, I unrolled the crescent roll dough. Then, I separated the dough into four rectangles.
- Next, I transferred one of the rectangles to a cutting board and pressed the seam together.
- Then, using a pizza cutter, I cut the rectangle into thin strips.
- Next, I wrapped each hot dog with the thin strips of dough. I left a little bit of room at the top so that I could add eyes after they were finished baking.
- I then placed the wrapped hot dogs on a silicone-lined baking sheet.
- I baked them in a 375° oven for 15 minutes until they were golden brown and the hot dogs thoroughly cooked.
- After removing them from the oven, I transferred them to a wire rack. I then placed a little bit of mustard into a piping bag and pipped small dots for the eyes.

Mummy Dogs
Ingredients
- 8 Hot Dogs, dried with paper towels
- 8 oz Refrigerated Crescent Roll Dough
- Mustard
- Ketchup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°. Line a large baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into four rectangles. Place one of the rectangles on a cutting board and press the seams together.
- Cut the dough into thin strips using a pizza cutter.
- Wrap the paper towel-dried hot dogs with thin strips of dough; to make them look like mummy wrappings, leaving a place at the top for the eyes.
- Place the wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking pan and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the mummy dogs to a wire cooling rack.
- Place a little mustard into a piping bag and snip off the end so you have a tiny hole. (I did this because using the mustard container produces too large of a dot for the eyes.) Then, pipe two small dots on each hot dog in the space you left for the eyes.
- Serve with sides of ketchup and mustard.
- Yield: 8 Mummy Dogs
