This is an old time kids favorite, it works wonderful for on the road.
Need:
2 packs of hot dogs
4 packs of the small value busuits
6 slices of cheddar or american cheese.
Begin
Cut each hot dog in half. Put a long slit in the middle of the hot dog- do NOT make slit past the edges, or penetrating the other side of the hot dog.
Cut cheese into long pieces, stuff the cheese inside of the slit on the hot dog.
Then take the raw biscuit dough, place the cheese filled side down in the middle of the biscuit, so that the cheese filled side is pressed against the inside of the biscuit.
wrap the rest of the biscuit around the hot dog, and pinch the ends (the ends of the hot dog do not need to be wrapped. Just the middle of it.
Place on cookie sheet, and bake at 425 degree's or until golden brown
Allow to completely cool, wrap in foil, and freeze for 48 hours.
