Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 Hot dogs
- 2 cans Croissant dough
- 8 Cheddar cheese sticks
- 1 cup Canned chili
- 1 Egg
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 8 Toothpicks or small skewers
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with cooking spray.
Open the croissant dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforations.
Take each hot dog and cut a shallow slit lengthwise down its center, being careful not to cut through completely.
Insert a cheddar cheese stick into the slit of each hot dog, trimming the cheese stick if needed to fit.
Place the hot dog and cheese stick at the widest end of a croissant dough triangle. Roll the dough tightly around the hot dog, sealing the edges as you go.
Secure the end of the dough with a toothpick or small skewer, ensuring the dough stays in place while baking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and paprika to create an egg wash.
Brush the surface of the wrapped hot dogs with the egg wash for a golden, glossy finish.
Place the wrapped hot dogs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the croissant dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
While the corndogs are baking, warm the canned chili in a small saucepan over medium heat until heated through.
Remove the toothpicks or skewers from the corndogs after baking. Carefully spoon the warm chili over the top of each croissant corndog, or serve the chili on the side for dipping.
Serve immediately and enjoy these delicious chili cheese croissant corndogs!
