Hot Dog Mummies
Ingredients:
1 12-pack of hot dogs
1 11-ounce can of refrigerator breadsticks
Yellow mustard
Instructions:
- 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.
- 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.
- Leave about 1/2 inch of hot dog exposed for the face area and continue wrapping the top of the hot dog.
- 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.
- Remove the mummies from the oven and cool them for 5 minutes. Add yellow mustard eyes just before serving. Prepare 12 mummies like this.
