Ingredients
- 8 pieces hot dogs
- 1 package (8 ounces) crescent roll dough
- 2 cups canned chili (no beans preferred)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups (diced) yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Roll out the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles as outlined in the package instructions.
Step 3
Place one hot dog at the wide end of each crescent roll triangle, then roll the dough around the hot dog, pinching edges to seal.
Step 4
Place the rolled hot dogs seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, evenly spaced.
Step 5
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the diced onion until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 6
Pour the canned chili evenly over the top of the crescent-wrapped hot dogs in the baking dish.
Step 7
Sprinkle the sautéed onions over the layer of chili.
Step 8
Generously top the casserole with shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Step 9
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crescent roll dough is golden brown.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
Step 11
Serve warm, and enjoy this fun twist on classic chili cheese dogs!
