Ingredients

• 8 pieces hot dogs
• 1 canister (approximately 8 ounces) crescent roll dough
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 0 ketchup or mustard (optional for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Open the canister of crescent roll dough and separate the dough into 8 pre-cut triangles.

Step 3

Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese onto the wide end of each crescent dough triangle.

Step 4

Place one hot dog on top of the cheese at the wide end of the triangle.

Step 5

Roll the dough tightly around the hot dog, starting from the wide end and working towards the pointed end. Ensure the tip of the dough sticks to seal it.

Step 6

Place the wrapped hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.

Step 8

Brush the top of each wrapped hot dog with the egg wash using a pastry brush. This will help achieve a golden-brown finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve with ketchup, mustard, or dipping sauce of your choice, if desired.
