Ingredients

  • 4 hot dogs
  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough
  • Optional: ketchup or mustard for dipping
  • Straw s for making faces

Instructions

Cut the hot dogs

  • Cut each hot dog in half, giving you 8 pieces.

Prepare the biscuit dough

  • Roll out the biscuit dough and cut it into 8 rectangles. You want each piece of dough to be large enough to drape over one piece of hot dog.

Make the ghosts

  • Place one rectangle of biscuit dough over each piece of hot dog. Gently shape the dough around the hot dog so that it resembles a little ghost. Don't worry about making them perfect—the more imperfect, the more character they have!

Add the faces

  • Use a straw to gently poke two eyes and one larger opening for the mouth in each ghost. I love using a straw because it makes perfectly round little ghost faces without needing any special tools.

Bake

  • Place the ghosts on a baking sheet and bake according to the biscuit dough package instructions, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
  • Let them cool slightly before serving.
