These Halloween spider hot dogs use crescent rolls for a spooky twist on pigs in a blanket. Kids love them. Plus, they are an easy snack for a holiday party.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated crescent rolls , 8 ounce
- 8 hots dogs
- 2 tablespoons ketchup , or to taste
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
2
Unroll crescent dough. Pinch or press the perforation between the triangles to get 4 rectangular pieces. Cut each rectangle in half lengthwise, making 8 narrow strips. Set aside.
-
3
Make a 2-inch slice through the center of one end of a hot dog. Cut two more 2-inch slices on either side of that slice, so the "legs" are about the same thickness. Repeat on the other end. Cut "legs" into remaining hot dogs.
-
4
Roll a crescent strip around center of each dog. Place spider dogs on an ungreased baking sheet.
-

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 11 minutes. Dip a chopstick into some ketchup and dot "eyes" onto each spider. Serve with remaining ketchup.

Air Fryer Bell Pepper Poppers
When you want an appetizer, try these air fryer bell pepper poppers. Not everyone can take the heat of jalapeño peppers–no worries, though! Use brightly colored mini bell peppers, fill them with Boursin herb-flavored Gournay cheese, and add just a little piece of bacon to the top. Air fry in a single layer, cooking in batches, depending on the size of the air fryer.
Two-Ingredient Ranch Kosher Dill Pickle Spears
This was all the rage on the internet, so I had to give it a shot because it seemed too good to be true. Turns out, all you need is a jar of pickles and a packet of ranch salad dressing, and you are in for a treat. This is a must for a picnic or backyard BBQ. It doesn't get any easier than this!
The Labor Day Burger
Enjoy the end of summer with a burger with kick with The Labor Day Burger, my own creation. The bacon grease acts as a 'glue' and will cook out on the grill, leaving the flavor in the beef. Excellent with grilled portobello caps! Note: this is a flammable burger due to the grease. It requires constant attention when grilling due to flare-ups.
