Mummy hot dogs

-

These ghoulish snacks are fun to make with mummy, daddy, or any relatives.

Prep: 15 minutes Cook: 20 minutes Makes: 12 You will need:

■ Oil, for greasing

■ 1 tbsp honey

■ 1 tbsp ketchup

■ 2 tsp yellow mustard, plus a little extra to decorate

■ 12 chipolatas

■ Tube of 6 ready-toroll croissants (look in the chiller cabinets near the pastry in the supermarke­ts)

Method:

1. Heat the oven to

200C/180C fan/Gas

Mark 6 and brush two baking trays with a little oil.

Mix the honey, ketchup and mustard together in a bowl, then brush over the chipolata sausages.

2. Unroll the croissant dough and divide into 3 rectangles. Pinch together the diagonal perforated seams, then cut into long thin strips. You should get about 16 per rectangle.

3. Wind the little croissant strips around the chipolatas, leaving a little gap at one end to make a slit for the eyes. Place on a baking tray and cook for 20 mins. Cool a little, then, using the mustard, dot a pair of little yellow eyes on to each mummy.

Our tip: We swapped out the mustard eyes for edible googly eyes. This has a more dramatic effect!
