Bacon Cheese Dog Crescent Braid Recipes

CHEESY BACON HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Split the hot dogs in half lengthwise, making a pocket but not cutting all the way through. Stuff each one with a string cheese. Starting at one end, wrap a slice of bacon around each stuffed hotdog, then place each on a square of foil and wrap up.
• Throw the wrapped hotdogs on a hot campfire grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the hot dogs heat through, the cheese melts and the bacon slices crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes, then unwrap.

MY BACON AND CHEESE HOT DOGS IN A BLANKET

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°; grab a large ungreased baking sheet or a couple of ungreased small ones.
• Unroll the crescent rolls into their 8 sections.
• For each section on the shortest end (opposite the point/tip), lay down 1/2 slice of cheese.
• Top cheese with 1/2 slice of bacon; Top bacon with uncooked hot dog.
• Roll everything up, starting with the short end just as if you were doing just a crescent roll, making sure the /tip/ is tucked underneath when you place it on your baking sheet(s).
• Place 4 wrapped dogs on each of the UNgreased small sheets OR all 8 dogs on the UNgreased large sheet.
• There should be a little space around each hot dog to allow the crescent roll to poof a little; the dogs should NOT be touching each other.
• Place in preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown; Serve hot.
• NOTE: please don't use fat free cheese, it really doesn't melt well and the flavour is too plastic, LOL!
