Crispy Rice Paper Dogs

Hi, I’m Chanie and I’ve been trashing up hot dogs for years! I’ve worked as an ambassador for Abeles & Heymann and I love doing fun things with their dogs! (and salami, of course!). My kids are huge fans of franks in blanks (aka moses in a basket aka pigs in a blanket), so I came up with this gluten free and sushi-inspired version using rice paper. You can choose to dip them in sesame seeds, or not (my little ones preferred the plain version and my teens liked the sesame-coated), such a fun recipe!!

Crispy Rice Paper Dogs

6 hot dogs, cut in half widthwise
12 sheets rice paper
oil for frying
black and white sesame seeds, optional
toppings: spicy mayo, sweet sauce, nori flakes

Method:

Soak rice paper in water until it’s pliable, about 1 minute. Wrap the hotdogs in rice paper like an eggroll, folding the sides in and wrapping around. Dip in sesame black and white sesame seeds if desired. Fry in a skillet with a little bit of oil, turning until crispy on all sides. Eat immediately.

NOTE: I have tried baking these and do not recommend baking for rice paper.

Cookie Danish


I took the viral Crookie – Cookie Croissant – and made it Jewish by stuffing a single serving of cookie dough into a danish!! I don’t know about your, but I’m team cinnamon over chocolate – I know, I know, not your typical – but I’m cinnaman and proud!

What about you?


Cookie Danish

¼ cup + 2 teaspoons flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
Pinch of kosher salt
1 egg yolk
¼ teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons chocolate chips
1 pre-baked Cinnamon or chocolate danish

Method:

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, salt, egg, vanilla and oil. Mix with a spoon until a dough forms and add in the chocolate chips.

Slice danish into half like a book. Spread most of the cookie dough over the danish, then close and top some more cookie dough.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the cookie dough on top of the danish is baked through.
