Prepare the Crescent Roll Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Pinch the seams together so it forms a solid crust.
Add the Chili: Spread the can of chili over the crescent roll dough. If you like, you can stir in the ketchup and mustard into the chili for extra flavor. Season with a little salt and pepper.
Add the Hot Dogs: Arrange the sliced hot dogs (or whole ones) evenly over the chili.
Top with Cheese and Onions: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the chili and hot dogs. If you're using onions, scatter them on top as well.
Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, serve with a side of extra ketchup, mustard, or relish for dipping.
Tips:
Add toppings: You can add jalapeños, diced tomatoes, or sour cream for a little extra flair.
Customize the chili: Make homemade chili if you want to elevate the flavor, or use a can for simplicity.
Make ahead: Prepare this dish in advance and refrigerate it before baking. When ready, just pop it in the oven.
