Scale
Primary Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
- 4 hot dogs
- 1 cup chili (canned or homemade)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Cooking spray or oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the proper temperature for baking the crescent roll chili dogs to a perfect golden brown.
- Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it using cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking and help the crescent rolls crisp up evenly.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. Optionally, flatten each triangle slightly with a rolling pin to make rolling easier and ensure even coverage.
- Assemble Dogs: Place one hot dog at the wide end of each crescent roll triangle. Spoon about two tablespoons of chili over the hot dog, then sprinkle the garlic powder and onion powder evenly over the chili followed by a generous layer of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Roll Up: Roll each triangle around the hot dog starting from the wide end, making sure to seal the edges well to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
- Bake: Place the assembled chili dogs on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving to avoid burns and to let the cheese set slightly inside.
Notes
- Use your favorite chili, whether canned or homemade, for best flavor customization.
- You can add extra seasonings like smoked paprika or chili powder to the chili for a spicier twist.
- Serve with mustard, ketchup, or relish for added condiment options.
- These can be prepared ahead and baked right before serving for convenience.
- To keep the rolls from getting soggy, ensure the chili is not too watery before assembly.
