Halloween Hot Dog Mummies with Mayo

Serves 10 in about 45 minutes. The oven brings refrigerated crescent rolls* and mustard together.

Ingredients

• 10 hot dogs
• 1 (8 oz) can refrigerated crescent rolls*
• 10 (1/4") slices of american cheese (or thinly cut cheddar)
• Mustard
• Mayo

Method

1. Warm oven to 375° F.
2. Take the hot dogs out of the package and dry them using paper towels. keep it nearby.
3. Carefully unroll the crescent dough. Don't separate the triangles. Separate at the perforations that are after every 2 triangles, so you have a rectangle (made of 2 triangles). You will have 4 total rectangles.
4. On each rectangle, gently pinch together the perforation between the 2 triangles so it is a smooth rectangle of dough.
5. Cut the dough lengthwise into ten 1/4" strips. You will end up with forty 1/4" strips of dough total.
6. Wrap 4 strips around each hot dog, stretching the strip a little, leaving some gaps where the hot dog shows through. You can even leave a gap near the top to put in some eyes!OPTIONAL: Place a slice of cheese on one side of the hot dog and wrap the dough "bandages" around to hold cheese in place.
7. Set them on an ungreased baking sheet (cheese side down, if using cheese).
8. Cook 13 to 17 minutes or until dough is light golden brown.
9. Plate immediately with dipping sauce of your choice.
