Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and slightly translucent.
Add the sliced hot dogs to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the baked beans. Stir to combine with the onions and hot dogs.
Add the yellow mustard, ketchup, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Cook the mixture for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and slightly thickened.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the cheese to melt for 2-3 minutes.
Once the cheese is fully melted, give the dish a gentle stir to distribute the cheese throughout.
Serve hot and enjoy your Cheesy Beenie Weenies as a main dish or a hearty side!
