Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces mini hot dogs (cocktail sausages)
- 1 tube (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon parsley, dried
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional topping)
- 0.5 cup dipping sauce of choice (e.g., mustard, ketchup, or ranch)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Open the crescent roll dough and unroll it onto a clean surface. Separate it into the pre-cut triangles.
Cut each triangle into three smaller strips, lengthwise, so you have 24 strips total.
Wrap one strip of dough around each mini hot dog, rolling it tightly and pinching the edges to seal.
Place the wrapped hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Brush this mixture over the tops of the wrapped hot dogs.
Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds or poppy seeds over the tops for added texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let the hot dog appetizers cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
