1 can (8 oz) canned refrigerated crescent dinner rolls (8 count)
2 1/2 slices (2.5 oz) American cheese slices, quartered
10 large hot dogs
Cooking spray
Mustard or ketchup, if desired

Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough; separate at perforations creating 4 rectangles; press perforations to seal. With knife or kitchen scissors, cut each rectangle lengthwise into 10 pieces, making a total of 40 pieces of dough. Slice cheese slices into quarters (1/2 slice cheese, cut in half).
2 . Wrap 4 pieces of dough around each hot dog and 1/4 slice of cheese to look like “bandages,” stretching dough slightly to completely cover hot dog. About 1/2 inch from one end of each hot dog, separate “bandages” so hot dog shows through for “face.” On ungreased large cookie sheet, place wrapped hot dogs (cheese side down); spray dough lightly with cooking spray.
3 . Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until dough is light golden brown and hot dogs are hot. With mustard, draw features on “face.”

Creepy Halloween Tunnel Cake Ingredients:

1 package white cake mix

Tunnels:
3 ounces red Jell-O mix (you can use any flavor really… the red is really neat looking though)
3/4 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water

Topping:
1 1/2 cups cold milk
1 small package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 envelope dream whip topping
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 handful of candy corn

Creepy Halloween Tunnel Cake Directions:

Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add cold water and stir until mixed and place in fridge until ready to use- do not allow to ‘set’, just keep it chilled enough.

Prepare cake following the package directions for a bunt sized cake. Let the cake cool for some time and then turn upside down on a large platter with a brim as the jello will leak out.

Using a straw or skewer “poke” tunnels and holes around and to the bottom of the cake about an inch apart, you can do it at random or in a tunnel like pattern, it’s up to you. Pour the cool liquid gelatin into the holes! Place in fridge so the gelatin sets.

Beat together the topping ingredients until stiff peaks begin to form, add red or scary green food coloring if desired. Once gelatin is set and you are ready to show off your gross Halloween treat, frost your creepy Halloween tunnel cake, sprinkle with gummy worms, or other candies for decoration and enjoy!

Ingredients

* 3 egg whites
* 1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
* pinch of salt
* 2/3 cup granulated sugar
* 1 tsp. vanilla

Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (105 degrees C). Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar and salt until foamy. Gradually, just a spoonful at a time, add the sugar, beating well. Continue beating until the meringue stands up in a glossy, firm peak when you lift the beaters out of the bowl. Then beat in the vanilla.
3. Spoon the meringue into a pastry decorating bag with a plain round tip approximately 3/8-inch (1 cm) wide. Pipe 3-inch (7.5 cm) bone shapes — one long line with two rounded blobs on each end. Pipe all the meringue at once because it cannot be baked in batches and they will deflate if it sits too long.
4. Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour. Without opening the oven door, turn the heat off and let the meringues remain in the oven for 1 more hour to dry and crisp.
5. Remove from cookie sheets carefully or you will end up with a bunch of broken bones!
6. Serve atop a plateful of crushed oreos to make it look as if they are lying in dirt.
