… from the California Kitchen

Macbeth, Act IV, Scene I [Round About The Cauldron Go]
The three witches, casting a spell and eating well, 
Round about the cauldron go;  
In the fresh vegetables throw.   
Cabbage, that’s under cold stone    
Days and nights hast thirty-one   
Swelter’d carrots sleeping got,  
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot.
Double, double toil and trouble; 
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
 
Fillet of a choice steak,  
In the cauldron boil and bake;  
Eye of potato, and toe of snip,  
Web of mushroom, and tongue of hog,  
Adder’s fork, and zucchini string,  
turkey’s leg, and chicken’s wing,  
For a charm of powerful trouble, 
Like a heaven-broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble;  
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
Tray of hot dogs wrapped in dough
How you doin’?  There’s more to Halloween than spooky desserts, frightening candies and terrifing poems as demostrated by these adorable, buttery Mummy Dogs—they deserve a little praise, too.  These are reminiscent of the old-fashioned pigs in a blanket but with a spooky, cheesy twist.  Mummy Dogs are a snap to make and will win over all the kids and adults at your Halloween party.  
 
Simply purchase a tube of crescent roll sheets or rolled dough. Instead of separating the dough into triangles, carefully unroll it onto 1 medium sheet pan, pinching together the perforations gently.
 
Once rolled, The Mummy Dogs must be baked right away to make sure you get clearly defined "bandages." Baked Mummy Dogs can be reheated in a 350°F oven until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes. 
 
Prep time:  10 minutes
Bake time:  12 to 14 minutes
Yields:  8 servings
 
Ingredients
1 8-ounce package crescent roll sheet (crescent roll dough or puff pastry sheet)
8 hot dogs
2 thick slices pepper jack cheese 
Nonstick spray
ketchup and yellow mustard, for serving
 
Directions
  1. Preheat an oven to 375⁰ F.
  2. Open and unroll the crescent roll sheet onto a cutting board, with the long side facing you.
  3. Cut 1/4 to 1/2-inch wide strips cross-wise (across the short side giving you 24 strips).
  4. Cut each slice of cheese into 4 long rectangles.
  5. Wrap one piece of cheese underneath one hot dog.
  6. Start with one strip of dough and wrap it around the cheese and hot dog like a mummy bandage. Continue with two more strips, pressing the end of the last strip together with the start of a new strip.
  7. Spray a sheet pan lined with parchment paper with nonstick spray.
  8. Place wrapped hot dogs cheese-side down on the prepared baking sheet pan. 
  9. Repeat with all of the remaining hot dogs. 
  10. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden brown.
  11. Let the Mummy Dogs cool for 5 minutes before adding two little dots of mustard eyes.
  12. Serve immediately.
 
Chefs Secret:  For extra flakiness, use puff pastry for the bandages. Just thaw the pastry sheet according to package instructions first and then follow the build outlined above.
 
Quip of the Day: “Never, never, never make a woman mad! They can remember things that never happened.”
