Description
A gruesome (and hilarious) Halloween snack that’s shockingly easy to make. These severed hot dog fingers are creepy, kid-friendly, and guaranteed to be the talk of your spooky spread. Baked to look like real fingers and slathered in ketchup “blood,” they’re both frightful and flavorful.
Ingredients
10 hot dogs
Ketchup (for “blood”)
10 hot dog buns or crescent roll dough
Optional Twist:
Use crescent rolls instead of buns for “mummified fingers” — just wrap and bake!
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice a flat “nail” shape into the top of each hot dog.
Add 2–3 shallow knuckle lines below the nail using a paring knife.
If using crescent dough, wrap each finger loosely like a mummy.
Bake on a lined sheet for 10–12 minutes (or until golden if wrapped).
Serve in buns (or alone) and top with generous drips of ketchup “blood.”
