Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Add the hot dogs to the heated pan and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and heated through.
While the hot dogs are cooking, warm the hot dog buns. You can toast them in a second skillet, on the grill, or in the oven for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden, if desired.
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, warm the cream cheese slightly until it becomes spreadable. If using the microwave, heat in 10-15 second increments to avoid overheating.
Once the hot dogs are cooked and the buns toasted, spread a generous layer of cream cheese inside each bun.
Place a cooked hot dog inside each bun on top of the cream cheese layer.
For added flavor, sprinkle finely chopped green onions over the top. For a spicy kick, add a few slices of jalapeños.
Drizzle ketchup and mustard over the hot dogs, if desired, to complete the dish.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your Cream Cheese Hot Dogs!
