Cheesy Hot Dogs Recipe
🕒 Prep Time: 5 minutes
🕒 Cook Time: 8 minutes
🕒 Total Time: 13 minutes
🥘 Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 hot dogs
- 4 cheese slices
- 4 slices of bacon
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, fry the bacon until it’s still soft. It will continue cooking in the oven, so you want to stop before it gets too crispy.
- Prepare the hot dogs: While the bacon is frying, slice the hot dogs in half lengthwise.
- Add the cheese: Cut each cheese slice in half and place one half end to end along the cut side of each hot dog.
- Assemble the hot dogs: Put the hot dogs back together, ensuring the cheese is nestled inside.
- Wrap with bacon: Wrap each hot dog with a slice of bacon and secure it with toothpicks to hold it in place.
- Bake: Place the wrapped hot dogs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the bacon is cooked through, about 8 minutes.
- Remove toothpicks: Once cooked, carefully remove the toothpicks from the hot dogs.
- Serve: Place each cheesy hot dog in a bun, garnish as desired, and enjoy! This recipe is especially loved by kids for its cheesy goodness.
