I’ve shared a recipe find yesterday regarding Creepy Halloween Drinks. For today’s recipe find share, to complete the Halloween party foods for your kids, you might want to try this Mummy Dog recipe I stumbled upon from scoochmaru. Check out her article for a more detailed instructions plus step by step images.  Her article is indeed very helpful and easy to follow.

Step 1: Hot dogs (veggie dogs or sausages), biscuit dough (fresh or store-bought) and mustard are all you need to turn out these ghoulish delights! One roll of biscuit dough will cover one eight-pack of dogs. Preheat your oven to 375o F (190o C).

Step 2: Roll out your biscuit dough (Pillsbury Crescent Rolls), and pinch together any seams. Cut into strips about 1″ wide. Wrap your dogs!

Step 3: Bake for 12 minutes at 375o F.

Step 4: Decorate. Use mustard (or cheese whiz) to add eyes.

Notes: Mummy Dogs are more commonly known as “Pigs in Blanket”.
