Hot Dog Mummies

Ingredients:

Hotdog Mummies1 12-pack of hot dogs
1 11-ounce can of refrigerator breadsticks
Yellow mustard

Instructions:

  1. For each mummy, separate one breadstick from the roll and use kitchen shears or a knife to slice it, in half lengthwise to create two thinner strips.

  2. Wrap one strip at a time snugly around the hot dog. Depending on the size of the hot dog, you may not need all of both strips.

  3. Leave about 1/2 inch of hot dog exposed for the face area and continue wrapping the top of the hot dog.

  4. Bake the mummies on a cookie sheet at a temperature of 350º for 15 to 18 minutes or until the breadstick wrapping is golden brown.

  5. Remove the mummies from the oven and cool them for 5 minutes. Add yellow mustard eyes just before serving. Prepare 12 mummies like this.

  3. Let it rest for about 3 minutes, then lay 1-inch-wide strips of American cheese across the body, leaving a narrow space on the head for the olive slice eyes.

  4. Trim any overhanging cheese with scissors and return the mummy to the still-warm oven to slightly melt the cheese, for about 1 minute.
