📝 Instructions

12 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

3

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 6 pre-cut triangles.

4

Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese on each dough triangle.

5

Place a dill pickle slice and optionally a slice of jalapeño (if using) on the wide end of each triangle.

6

Place a hot dog on top of the pickle slice, then carefully roll the crescent dough around the hot dog, starting from the wide end. Pinch the edges to seal.

7

Arrange the rolled hot dogs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.

8

Melt the butter in a small bowl and mix in the garlic powder. Brush this mixture over the tops of the crescent rolls for extra flavor and a golden-brown finish.

9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through.

10

While the hot dog surprises bake, mix the ketchup and mustard in a small bowl for dipping sauce.

11

Remove the hot dog surprises from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.

12

Serve warm with the dipping sauce on the side and enjoy!
