Servings:  8 

Prep: 15 minutes| Cook Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

Hotdogs

Sugar

Active dry yeast

Salt

Oil

Flour

Edible googly eyes

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar.

Let the yeast mixture set for 5-10 minutes, until the yeast is bubbling. 

Once yeast is bubbled, stir in oil and salt.

Add in 1 cup of flour and mix until well incorporated, if necessary add an extra half cup of flour if the dough is too sticky.

Knead for 5 minutes. 

Once kneaded, roll out the dough into a rectangle about a ¼ inch thick. 

Cut the dough into 8 strips and roll them out in your hand into long snakes. 

Wrap each strip around each hot dog leaving space for google eyes.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. 

Once cool for a few minutes use a toothpick with a little bit of ketchup to set eyes.

Notes:

*You could easily stretch the dough to make 16 hotdogs if needed. 

*You could also use refrigerator pizza dough if you want a quick fix.
