Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
Separate crescent dough into 4 rectangles, pinch seams together. Cut each rectangle lengthwise into thin strips.
Cut each slice of American cheese into 4 strips.
Place a hot dog on top of a piece of cheese, then wrap with crescent dough strips to look like bandages leaving room at the top for the mummy's eyes. (You will need about 4 strips of crescent dough per hot dog.) Repeat with remaining hot dogs.
Place wrapped hot dogs (cheese side down) on the prepared baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
Bake until the crescent dough is golden and hot dogs are cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.
Just before serving make eyeballs using mustard OR place a small dot of mustard on the back of your candy eyes and attach to each mummy dog. Serve immediately with ketchup and/or mustard for dipping.
