I love an easy appetizer and these are such fun little hot dog biscuit rolls!

Halloween fun foods are a favorite that’s almost too fun to eat!

These delicious little mummy-wrapped hotdogs are one of the kids and young-at-heart adult's favorite party foods.

You may also know these referred to as pigs in a blanket, Halloween-style.

Easy spooktacular mummy dogs are baked in crescent dough strips and made to look like a classic Halloween mummy ghoul.

Using a dollar store kind of squeeze bottle just add a favorite condiment to create the eyes after baking them and enjoy!

Growing up

When I was a little girl, I would help mom make these. She always used pizza dough.

When you're in a hurry for a great appetizer that's fast and easy this is my go-to recipe using refrigerator dough.

The kids love them. I actually can't make enough of them, we never have leftovers! Of course, the kids think this is a treat around Halloween making little mummy dogs but they are a great appetizer all year long anytime!

Perfect For Halloween

During the Halloween party foods, I will use pizza or refrigerator dough, wrap whole hot dogs, and make mummy dogs.

Just make strips of dough and wrap a whole hot dog!

Just add either two dots of mustard or ketchup for the eyes.

You will have to perfect hot dog biscuit rolls shaped into a mummy!
