Meatball Creepy Crawlers Recipes

MEATBALL CREEPY CRAWLERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Separate the dough into 10 biscuits. Separate each biscuit into 2 layers.
• Wrap each meatball with a layer of dough to make a ball, pinching the edges to seal. (place the pinched edges on the bottom.).
• To make a creepy crawler, line up 10 dough covered meatballs in a squiggle pattern. Poke the shoestring potatoes (I used the chow mein noodles) in both sides of each ball to make the legs, and two poked into the top of the "head" for antennae.
• Bake 13 to 16 minutes or until golden brown.
• Make a face out of olive slices.
• Place olive slices, pickle slices, carrot slices, or whatever at random points along the creepy crawler for interest.
• Serve the creepy crawlers with ketchup, mustard, or whatever you might like.

CREEPY CRAWLERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl. Roll pie dough onto a work surface and cut each circle into 16 wedges. Lightly spread butter onto each piece of dough stopping about 1/2 inch from the edge. Place 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon miniature chocolate chips on the buttered portion of the dough pieces.
• Lightly moisten the point of each wedge with water and sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Roll each wedge from the outside toward the point, creating a croissant-shape; pinch edges closed.
• Beat egg white in a bowl, adding enough food coloring to reach desired color. Dip the top of each croissant-shaped dough in egg white mixture and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each with cinnamon-sugar and top with sprinkles. Place 2 miniature chocolate chips on 1 end of each for the "eyes".
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
