Ingredients List

- 8 hot dogs
- Optional: 8 slices of cheese, mustard, ketchup, and other condiments for serving
Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforated lines.
- Add Cheese (Optional): If using cheese, place a slice of cheese on each triangle of dough. For extra flavor, you can also spread a thin layer of mustard or ketchup on the dough before adding the hot dog.
- Wrap Hot Dogs: Place a hot dog at the wide end of each triangle and roll it up towards the narrow end, wrapping the dough around the hot dog. Ensure the dough covers the hot dog completely, with the ends of the hot dog peeking out.
- Place on Baking Sheet: Arrange the wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
- Brush with Butter or Egg Wash (Optional): For a golden, crispy finish, brush the tops of the crescent rolls with melted butter or an egg wash (a beaten egg mixed with a tablespoon of water).
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the hot dogs wrapped in crescent rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve with your favorite condiments, such as mustard, ketchup, or relish.
Notes
Use Quality Ingredients:
- Choose high-quality hot dogs and crescent roll dough for the best flavor. If possible, use all-beef hot dogs or gourmet sausages for a richer taste.
Customize Your Fillings:
- Add variety to your hot dogs by experimenting with different fillings. Try adding jalapeños, onions, or even a sprinkle of your favorite spices to the cheese for added flavor.
Brush with Egg Wash or Butter:
- For a beautiful golden finish, brush the crescent rolls with an egg wash (beaten egg mixed with a tablespoon of water) or melted butter before baking.
Try Different Cheeses:
- Experiment with different types of cheese, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack, to find your favorite combination. You can also mix and match for a unique flavor profile.
Serve with Dipping Sauces:
- Enhance the experience by serving hot dogs wrapped in crescent rolls with a variety of dipping sauces such as mustard, ketchup, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
