Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforated lines.
Place one hot dog at the base of each triangle. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese onto the wide end of the dough before adding the hot dog.
Roll the crescent triangle over the hot dog, starting at the wide end and rolling towards the pointed end. Ensure the dough wraps snugly around the hot dog.
Place the wrapped hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs and dough.
If desired, brush melted butter over the tops of the rolls for added flavor. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or garlic powder for extra texture and taste.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
