Four little mummies, jumping on the bed
One fell off and hit his head,
Momma called the doctor and the doctor said
NO MORE MUMMIES jumping on the bed!
Three little mummies, jumping on the bed ….
Okay, okay, I just can’t help myself! I love reciting this little rhyme, as my kids and grandkids can attest too! 🙂 You may have said it a time or two with little monkeys jumping on the bed, but it is October and lots of parties going on that include everything from fall harvest to little ghost and goblins. Enter my little mummies.
Thanks to the creative moms at Our Best Bites for their awesome party food for kids! That is where I found the recipe for these little cuties. Later this week I will have help from 12 home school students as we make these in their cooking class. But for this trial run I got help from my own “mummy!”
She started with 3 ingredients: hot dogs, crescent dough, mustard. Easy!
My mummy sliced the crescent dough into 1/4″ slices and the hot dogs in half.
The dough is carefully wrapped around and around turning the dog into a mummy. This is fun for kids because the wrap doesn’t have to be perfect. Creativity is encouraged and no two mummies are alike!
Once all the dogs are dressed and capped they go into the oven at 375 degrees F. for about 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
After baking, dots of mustard make the eyes.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
They are party perfect and don’t need to be kept warm. Have fun and thanks to my mummy for the help!

Sometimes she tells me not to say it!
Ya, I know what you mean Terri!
I think I drove my kids crazy with it when they were … kids 🙂
I think I like the monkeys on the bed better than my granddaughter , and these are so cute! Your Mummy did a great job!
I can’t wait to make these because I love hot dogs….and pastry. YUM! Great photo of mom ~
