Halloween is just around the corner. And my kids are here for it! Honestly, we are just in need of a reason to celebrate. And sure, it might still reach 90 degrees on some afternoons, but it’s not stopping us from celebrating the spooky season. So on days when I need to create a little bit of extra joy in my kids lives, we make this hot dog mummies recipe for dinner. They’re easy, delicious, and just a little spooky.
What you’ll need to make this Halloween snack
These spooky Halloween snacks are extremely simple and you will kick yourself for not making them sooner! Honestly, my kids freak out every single time I make them for dinner (which, honestly, is a lot lately). So here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 package of of Hot Dogs
- 1 can of refrigerated Crescent Rolls
- Candy Eyes
- Cooking Spray
- Ketchup & Mustard (optional)
That’s it! Easy peasy. I just highly suggest that you use cooking spray to make sure that the crescent roll dough doesn’t get too hard or cook too quickly. If you’re looking for a light spray, we love this Avocado Oil Spray.
