- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line an 18 x 13-inch (46 x 33 cm) rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Make sure the oven is fully preheated before baking so the crescent dough can puff up and brown evenly.
- Prepare the Hot Dogs: Remove all 8 fully cooked hot dogs, about 16 oz (454 g) total, from their packaging. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove surface moisture. The hot dogs should feel dry on the outside so the dough can grip them without sliding.
- Cut the Crescent Dough: Unroll 1 can (8 oz / 227 g) of chilled refrigerated crescent roll dough onto a clean work surface. If the dough is perforated, press the seams together to form a single sheet. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 long strips of approximately equal width. Keep the strips flat and separate so they&x27;re easy to handle.
- Wrap the Mummy Hot Dogs: Take one strip of dough and gently stretch it as you spiral it around one hot dog, beginning near the bottom. Leave small gaps between the wraps and an exposed opening about 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) wide near the top for the mummy&x27;s face. Repeat with the remaining dough and hot dogs. Place all 8 wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down, leaving space between them.
- Bake Until Golden: Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the oven and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 13 to 17 minutes, until the crescent dough is puffed, golden brown, and no longer looks raw at the seams. The hot dogs should be heated through. Remove the baking sheet with oven mitts when the dough is evenly golden.
- Cool and Add the Eyes: Transfer the mummy hot dogs to a wire cooling rack and let them rest for 3 minutes. Measure 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of yellow mustard into a small spot on the work surface or use the mustard directly from the measuring spoon. Dip the tip of a toothpick into the mustard and add two small dots to each exposed hot dog face. Serve while the dough is warm and flaky.
