Description
This Chili Cheese Crescent Hot Dog Bake is a fun and flavorful twist on the classic chili dog. Juicy hot dogs are wrapped in buttery crescent roll dough, nestled on a bed of warm chili, topped with melty cheddar cheese, and brushed with garlic butter for a golden, savory finish. Perfect for game day, weeknight dinners, or party snacks.
