Equipment

Ingredients

1 tube crescent roll dough
8 hot dogs
16 Edible googly eyeballs

Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees for about 5 minutes. Prepare the Crescent Rolls: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Using a knife or pizza cutter, slice each triangle into thin strips (about 1/4 inch wide).
Wrap the Hot Dogs: Take one hot dog and start wrapping it with a crescent roll strip, leaving a small gap for the face. Continue wrapping until the hot dog is covered, resembling a mummy. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs and crescent roll strips.
Air Fry the Mummy Dogs: Place the wrapped hot dogs in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching each other. Air fry at 350 degrees for 5-7 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Add the Eyeballs: Remove the mummy dogs from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Place the edible eyeballs in the gap you left for the face. If needed, you can use a tiny bit of mustard or ketchup to help the eyeballs stick.
Serve the mummy dogs warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or cheese dip

Notes

For a spicier twist, use spicy hot dogs or add a dollop of hot sauce
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the mummy dogs in a preheated oven at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
You can use puff pastry dough for this recipe.
Have a few different dipping sauce available like ketchup, mustard, and BBQ sauce.
Air fryers work best when the air can circulate around the food, so give your mummy dogs plenty of space in the basket. If you’re making a big batch, cook them in two or more batches.
For an oozy, cheesy twist, tuck a thin slice of cheese inside the hot dog before wrapping it with the dough. Cheddar, mozzarella, or even pepper jack are great options.
