Ingredients
- 18 pieces Cocktail sausages (mini hot dogs)
- 1 can (8 oz) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 medium Green bell pepper
- 0.5 cup Ketchup (optional for dipping)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Open the can of refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Cut each triangle into 3 narrow strips to create 18 strips total.
Step 3
Cut the green bell pepper into thin slivers resembling toenail shapes. Aim for 18 small pieces that will fit on the ends of the cocktail sausages.
Step 4
Wrap one strip of crescent roll dough around each cocktail sausage, leaving one end of the sausage slightly exposed to act as the 'toe tip.'
Step 5
Press one bell pepper 'toenail' onto the exposed end of each sausage, making sure it sticks well.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Lightly brush the crescent roll dough with the egg wash for a golden and shiny finish after baking.
Step 7
Place the wrapped sausages on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and puffed.
Step 9
Allow the Monster Toes to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ketchup for dipping (optional) to add to the spooky vibe.
